Plant Chemical Genomics

This volume discusses easy-to-follow protocols for researchers in the field of plant chemical genomics. The chapters in this book look at technical workflows of high-throughput chemical compound screens in numerous plant tissues, such as seedlings, roots, and pollen. Chapters also focus on single-celled systems such as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for chemical screens, and techniques used to modify the target of a small molecule. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Thorough and cutting-edge, Plant Chemical Genomics: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource to help researchers work with a broad variety of plants for chemical genomics approaches.

Includes cutting-edge methods and protocols Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results Contains key notes and implementation advice from the experts
