METABOLOMICS AND ITS APPLICATION TO HIGH RESOLUTION PHENOTYPE ANALYSIS

摘要

Metabolomics is applicable without genome sequence information. Therefore, Metabolomics would be powerful analytical tool for commercially available plant and microorganisms. Among the operation of Metabolomics, metabolic fingerprinting, in which metabolic profile is used as fingerprint for samples' performance prediction and classification, is thought to be a possible tactics. On this occasion, practical operation of Metabolomics for high resolution phenotype analysis would be presented.
