Abstract:

The recent advances in plant sciences, in combination with bioinformatics and analogous development in tools, software and visualisation modelling, have steered the scientific community to an aggressive argumentation of information. Even after the emergence of Omics and several such splendid bioinformatics tools, a substantial number of researchers need to become more familiar with these tools. This review focuses on the applications of various in silico tools and technologies that may be adopted to analyse the plant sciences. The understanding of these different technologies shall lead us to a better understanding of plant properties such as stress tolerance, pathogenic resistance nutritional improvement. We are also converging thoughts on different trials and constraints in plant sciences in connection with the bioinformatics approach.


Keywords: Bioinformatics, Genomics, Omics, producers, food, medicine
