Application of transcriptomics in plant-pathogen interactions?
What could be the probable techniques applied from transcriptomics to study metabolomics of plant pathogen interaction ?
Need suggestion.
Most recent answer
You can conduct RNA-Seq analysis (only in host or dual in both pathogen and host) to get the DEGs between infected and non-infected conditions and get a bit of idea regarding the genes and metabolic pathways which might be involved in inciting the disease response

I don't think this is a correct question. One cannot study metabolomics by transcriptomics. If it was possible, there would not be a separate field for that. Only inferences about metabolism can be made by using transcriptomics.
Hoan X. Dinh Yes can you please elaborate?
I went through some publications where there is quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis

Plants being sessile organisms encounter numerous attacks by pathogens and pests with different lifestyles and modes of attack. In response, plants undergo cellular reprogramming in order to perceive these attacks and activate specific defense pathways. Plants possess extensive regulatory mechanisms which come into play during defense responses so...
Over the years, several studies have been performed to analyse plant-pathogen interactions. Recently, functional genomic strategies, including proteomics and transcriptomics, have contributed to the effort of defining gene and protein function and expression profiles. Using these 'omic' approaches, pathogenicity- and defence-related genes and prote...
