Abstract

The continuous development of analytical and experimental technologies as well as instruments resulted in the development of very specialized experimental approaches that can identify, measure and quantify particular types of cellular molecules. These technologies are known as “Omics Technologies”. Most of the omics technologies are high throughput with very fast data generation rates and humongous outputs. Thus, they are highly dependent on bioinformatics and computational tools. These technologies have made noticeable contributions to the current advancements in our understanding of plant biology in general and plant stress tolerance and response in particular. In this chapter, we will introduce the main omics technologies employed in plant biology and the bioinformatics platforms associated with them.
