Concept, Development, and Application of Computational Methods for the Analysis and Integration of Omics Data

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Plant Bioinformatics

Abstract

Bioinformatic approaches play a very important role in omics to understand the plant science. These omic-based advance techniques have provided crucial resource to researcher to study the plant biology in model and non-model plants. In this chapter we have discussed few fundamentals of omics techniques and their analysis pipeline in genomics, transcriptomics, small RNA, gene annotation and other emerging techniques like genotyping by sequencing, tilling, etc. Furthermore, integration of omics data at all levels has become a major challenge as the amount of omics data is increasing at a rapid space. In this chapter, we have attempted to put forward few important applications of different omics techniques such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics in plant science.
