title: OMICS in Plant Disease Resistance.
abstract: The term OMICS, which look into the global profiling and analysis of various cellular molecules, has gained new heights with the advancement of next-generation sequencing and mass spectrometry technologies. It has broader implication in genetic improvement of crops for resistance against various diseases of economic significance. This focus issue entitled OMICS in Plant Disease Resistance highlights the implication of OMICS (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics) in agricultural research.
