Includes bibliographical references and index.

Following a general introduction to the book, the first section of the book will include details of metabolomics of model species, including Arabidopsis, tomato and the legume Medicago. Chapters within the second section will consider the use and inter relationships of data integration, systems biology, genetics, genomics, metabolomics, chemometrics and biostatisitcs. The final section of the book will look at the use of metabolomics in food science, plant ecology, biodiversity and bioprocessing. Plant Metabolomics is an essential purchase for plant scientists, plant geneticists and physiologists.
