In plant science, the number of proteome studies is rapidly
expanding after the completion of the Arabidopsis thaliana
genome sequence, and proteome analyses of other important or
emerging model systems and crop plants are in progress or are being
initiated. Proteome analysis in plants is subject to the same
obstacles and limitations as in other organisms, but the nature of
plant tissues, with their rigid cell walls and complex variety of
secondary metabolites, means that extra challenges are involved
that may not be faced when analysing other organisms.
This volume aims to highlight the ways in which proteome analysis has been used to probe the complexities of plant biochemistry and physiology. It is aimed at researchers in plant biochemistry, genomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics who wish to gain an up-to-date insight into plant proteomes, the information plant proteomics can yield and the directions plant proteome research is taking.
