Abstrakt: Through current mass spectrometry methods and multiple RNA-Seq technologies, large metabolomics and transcriptomics datasets are readily obtainable, which provide a powerful and global perspective on metabolism. Indeed, one "omics" method is often not enough to draw strong conclusions about metabolism. Combining and interpreting multiple "omics" datasets remains a challenging task that requires careful statistical considerations and pre-planning. Here we describe a protocol for obtaining high-quality metabolomics and transcriptomics datasets in developing plant embryos followed by a robust approach to integration of the two. This protocol is readily adjustable and scalable to any other metabolically active organ or tissue.
