Ecometabolomics: Metabolic Fluxes versus Environmental Stoichiometry

Ecometabolomics focuses on the interaction between plants, particularly plants that have vigorous secondary metabolites, and the environment using metabolomics. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the responses of the metabolome of organisms to biotic and abiotic environmental changes. It includes an introduction to metabolomics, summaries of metabolomic techniques and applications, studies of stress in plants and insights into challenges in the field. Ecometabolomics is a must-have reference for plant biologists, plant biochemists, plant ecologists and phytochemists researching the interface between plants and the environment using metabolomics. Provides an in-depth overview of the basics of the discipline, including non-targeted analysis and quantification of plant metabolitesOutlines the applications of various analytical techniques in comprehending the total metabolome of the organismCovers both NMR and MS-based approaches INDICE: 1. Introducing metabolomics 2. Integrated approach on plant biology via multianalogus methods 3. Metabolomics studies of stress in plants 4. Climatic change and metabolome fluxes 5. Instrumentation applied to metabolomic analysis 6. Ecological metabolomics: Challenges and Perspectives
