Metabolomics as a hypothesis-generating functional genomics tool for the annotation of Arabidopsis thaliana genes of "unknown function"
Metabolomics is the methodology that identifies and measures global pools of small molecules (of less than about 1,000 Daltons) of a biological sample, which are collectively called the metabolome. Metabolomics can therefore reveal the metabolic outcome of a genetic or environmental perturbation of...
