 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 18 Medicinal Plant Metabolomics Research Progress [Abstract] From the technical steps, analysis methods and practical application of three aspects of the current study of medicinal plants in the field of metabolomics some theoretical and practical overview of the challenges faced. [Keywords:] medicinal plants; metabonomics; functional genomics Metabolomics is the large-scale biological metabolites in vivo analysis of a technology [1], which is an important component of systems biology (as shown in Figure 1), medicinal plant metabolomics major study changes in external factors the impact of plants, such as climate change, nutrition, stress, biological stress, and gene mutations and reorganization caused by small changes in species phenotypic analysis is the most powerful tools. In the modern traditional Chinese medicine research, metabolomics in drug efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine resources and quality control research has important theoretical significance and application value. In addition, in the model plant or transgenic mutant library before the library for analysis, metabolomics is often the first to consider the research methods. At present, the foreign has been the successful use of metabonomics technology for Arabidopsis mutant examples of large-scale genetic screening, which is an important trait associated with the clarification of gene function and selection available for commercial use of genetically modified crops basis. Figure a systems biology study of four levels of slightly At present, there are many economic crops, whole-genome sequencing project has not yet completed, because of metabonomics study does not require knowledge of genomic information, so with these crops, field of study related to greater use value, which is with the transcription Genomics and proteomics study of one of the advantages in comparison. Metabolomics research, which involved with biotechnology, analytical chemistry, o
