About this ebook

This is the newest title in the successful Molecular Plant Biology Handbook Series. Just like the other titles in the series this new book presents an excellent overview of different approaches and techniques in Metabolomics. Contributors are either from ivy-league research institutions or from companies developing new technologies in this dynamic and fast-growing field. With its approach to introduce current techniques in plant metabolomics to a wider audience and with many labs and companies considering to introduce metabolomics for their research, the title meets a growing market. The Kahl books are in addition a trusted brand for the plant science community and have always sold above expectations.

About the author

Gunter Kahl is Professor for Plant Molecular Biology at the Biocenter of Johann Wolfgang Goethe-University of Frankfurt/Main, Germany. After gaining his PhD in plant biochemistry, he spent two postdoctoral years at Michigan State University, East Lansing, USA, joining Professor Joe Varner, and at the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California, with Professor James Bonner. His main research interests are:
- Sequencing and analysis of fungal, plant and animal genomes
- Transcriptome analysis in pro- and eukaryotic organisms
- Technology development
Gunter Kahl is the author of more than 250 scientific journal publications and several book publications including all titles of the successful Molecular Plant Biology Handbook series, and currently holds the CSO position at GenXPro GmbH, a company specializing in novel technologies in genomics and transcriptomics, located at the Frankfurt Innovation Centre for Biotechnology (FIZ), Frankfurt/Main, Germany.

Wolfram Weckwerth is Professor and founding chair of the Department of Molecular Systems Biology (MOSYS) at the University of Vienna, Austria. He holds a diploma in chemistry and a PhD in biochemistry, both from the Technical University Berlin, Germany. His main research interests are:
- The development of genome-wide metabolomics and proteomics/phosphoproteomics technologies as elementary systems biology techniques, high throughput profiling (HTP) in systems biology, data integration; combining experimental approaches with multivariate statistics, pattern recognition, modeling of metabolism, and functional genome interpretation: synergetics
- The genotype-environment-phenotype-equation: plant ecology and phenotypic plasticity including stress, growth, developmental and nutritional physiology
- Plant-microbe-interaction and medicinal plants
- Green Systems Biology: application of systems biology approaches in ecology, evolution and biotechnology
