Metabolomics, a Powerful Tool for Understanding Plant Abiotic Stress

Metabolomics, a Powerful Tool for Understanding Plant Abiotic Stress

Metabolomics is a technology that generates large amounts of data and contributes to obtaining wide and integral explanations of the biochemical state of a living organism. Plants are continuously affected by abiotic stresses such as water scarcity, high temperatures and high salinity, and metabolom...
