Metabolomics is developing toward an integral component of functional genomics approaches. The large structural diversity of plant metabolites requires different analytical techniques for broad metabolite analysis. In addition, new bioinformatics tools and databases are necessary for data analysis and storage. This chapter describes the resources available for comprehensive analysis of plant secondary metabolites focusing on Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica species. In particular, a platform for non-targeted profiling of semi-polar plant metabolites based on liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry is described.
