Abstract

Chemical genomics is a highly effective approach for understanding complex and dynamic biologicalprocesses in plants. A chemical activity can be investigated by a reverse genetics strategy, for which a hugeabundance and diversity of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants are readily available for exploitation. Here wepresent an approach to characterize a chemical of interest, as well as examples of studies demonstrating aneffective combination of chemical genomics with reverse genetics strategies, drawn from recent literatureon phytohormone signalling and auxin transport.
