Sumario:Genome-wide transcriptome profiling is a powerful tool for identifying key genes and pathways involved in plant development and physiological processes. This review summarizes studies that have used transcriptome profiling mainly in rice to focus on responses to macronutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and spatio-temporal root profiling in relation to the regulation of root system architecture as well as nutrient uptake and transport. We also discuss strategies based on meta- and co-expression analyses with different attributed transcriptome data, which can be used for investigating the regulatory mechanisms and dynamics of nutritional responses and adaptation, and speculate on further advances in transcriptome profiling that could have potential application to crop breeding and cultivation.
