About

Omics plays an important role in life sciences, which studies all the components and their interrelations as a whole. With the rapid development of sequencing technology, high-throughput sequencing provides important insights for omics research in plant biology. Plants have produced a large amount of omics data, such as the genome, resequencing transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, etc. Recently, studying single omics has had limitations, making it difficult to cover multiple aspects. Therefore, a strong need for integrated studies started the new era of multi-omics.

Ornamental plants include herbaceous and woody plants with aesthetic and ornamental value. Beverage plants serve as potential raw materials for beverage products. Therefore, ornamental and beverage plants are integral constituents of natural beauty and healthy beverages that enrich the quality of human life and share huge economic values in the agricultural business. Recent plant biology research has explored how to effectively integrate the increasingly available multi-omics data and link the multi-omics findings with important agronomic, ornamental, and resistance traits.

In this research topic, we would like to focus on the recent progress of multi-omics methods and applications aimed at integrating multi-omics data in ornamental and beverage plants. We welcome the submission of Original Research and Review articles on, but not limited to, the following subjects:

- Comprehensive multi-omics analysis (genome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, etc.).
- Epigenetics analysis of specific traits of ornamental and beverage plants.
- Reanalyze the genome, transcriptome, proteome, and other big data of a variety of plants, and analyze the important scientific problems related to ornamental and beverage plants.
- Genome-wide identification, evolutionary analysis, and bioinformatics analysis of important gene families of multiple ornamental and beverage plants, with some functional verification.
