Abstract

Palms, which belong to the family Arecaceae, are economically important plants next only to grasses and legumes. The science of omics in palms has witnessed considerable advances in the recent years. This chapter is a compilation of the developments in various fields of omics such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics and phenomics of the palms with special reference to coconut, date palm and oil palm. Whole genome sequence resources are available only in a few of the economically important palm species. The chapter is presented under different sections in the order of abiotic stress, biotic stress, chloroplast and mitochondria, databases and web resources, evolution and phylogenomics, fruits and its parts, gender/sex determination, height/dwarfism, image analysis and other phenomics. A roadmap for future work and information of omics resources as available in the three major economic palms and related web resources are presented.
