Abstract
Metabolomics is the analysis of micro-biomolecules related to the metabolic processes of a living organism. It has a strong connection between the genotype and phenotype of an organism. Metabolomics is like other “omics” technologies and can handle large-scale, complex, and dynamic databases. As a result, various data processing techniques are needed to retrieve biologically relevant knowledge from a living organism. Those data processing workflows of metabolomics research are typically complicated and require many phases or steps. This chapter will address the application and role of metabolites in the growth, development, and produce chemical compounds for defense against biotic and abiotic stress of rice and other crops. Hence, it is important to know the metabolic process of plants under different environmental conditions. Thus, metabolomic techniques may be used to elucidate the roles of unknown genes by using natural variations and mutations in target plants. These metabolomic methods could be useful in crop breeding, where important plant traits like taste, yield, and grain yield quality are strongly linked to metabolic conditions. Various data analysis techniques are used for metabolomics studies and metabolomics experiments. These methods can identify specific metabolites that help to improve stress resistance and disease resistance. We also discuss the several available computational techniques and tools that can assist in the biological interpretation of metabolomics data. We also introduce emerging methods for designing genome-scale metabolic models to analyze cellular metabolism.
