Gene Expression Maps in Plants: Current State and Prospects

For many years, progress in the identification of gene functions has been based on classical genetic approaches. However, considerable recent omics developments have brought to the fore indirect but high-resolution methods of gene function identification such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and meta...

description For many years, progress in the identification of gene functions has been based on classical genetic approaches. However, considerable recent omics developments have brought to the fore indirect but high-resolution methods of gene function identification such as transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. A transcriptome map is a powerful source of functional information and the result of the genome-wide expression analysis of a broad sampling of tissues and/or organs from different developmental stages and/or environmental conditions. In plant science, the application of transcriptome maps extends from the inference of gene regulatory networks to evolutionary studies. However, only some of these data have been integrated into databases, thus enabling analyses to be conducted without raw data; without this integration, extensive data preprocessing is required, which limits data usability. In this review, we summarize the state of plant transcriptome maps, analyze the problems associated with the combined analysis of large-scale data from various studies, and outline possible solutions to these problems.
