Integrative Multi-Omics Through Bioinformatics

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Omics Applications for Systems Biology

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 1102))

Abstract

This chapter introduces different aspects of bioinformatics with a brief discussion in the systems biology context. Example applications in network pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine, systems metabolic engineering, and plant genome-scale modelling are described. Lastly, this chapter concludes on how bioinformatics helps to integrate omics data derived from various studies described in previous chapters for a holistic understanding of secondary metabolite production in P. minus.
