Provides a global view of the recent advances in the biological sciences and the adaption of
the pathogen to the host plants revealed using NGS. Molecular Omic's is now a major driving
force to learn the adaption genetics and a great challenge to the scientific community which
can be resolved through the application of the NGS technologies. The availability of complete
genome sequences the respective model species for dicot and monocot plant groups presents a
global opportunity to delineate the identification function and the expression of the genes
to develop new tools for the identification of the new genes and pathway identification.
Genome-wide research tools resources and approaches such as data mining for structural
similarities gene expression profiling at the DNA and RNA level with rapid increase in
available genome sequencing efforts expressed sequence tags (ESTs) RNA-seq gene expression
profiling induced deletion mutants and insertional mutants and gene expression knock-down
(gene silencing) studies with RNAi and microRNAs have become integral parts of plant molecular
omic's. Molecular diversity and mutational approaches present the first line of approach to
unravel the genetic and molecular basis for several traits QTL related to disease resistance
which includes host approaches to combat the pathogens and to understand the adaptation of the
pathogen to the plant host. Using NGS technologies understanding of adaptation genetics
towards stress tolerance has been correlated to the epigenetics. Naturally occurring allelic
variations genome shuffling and variations induced by chemical or radiation mutagenesis are
also being used in functional genomics to elucidate the pathway for the pathogen and stress
tolerance and is widely illustrated in demonstrating the identification of the genes
responsible for tolerance in plants bacterial and fungal species.
