Transcriptome and metabolome integration in sugarcane through culm development

What is it about?

Multi-omics cross association on Sugarcane. Sugarcane is high-yielding grass, high in sucrose and lignocellulosic biomass, considered an optimal feedstock as an alternative to fossil fuels and to produce a broad range of high-value biomaterials.

Why is it important?

The multi-omics analysis highlights complementary information. The generation of predictive models from integrative multi-omics datasets gives opportunities to have a better understanding of the intricate global molecular mechanisms that control carbon partitioning, phenotypic changes, and response to biotic or abiotic factors stress.
