Abstract

Omics are emerging technologies that explores the roles, relationships, and actions of various types of biomolecules. Depending upon category studying, the suffix “Omics” is added like that of genes (genomics), transcripts (transcriptomics), proteins (proteomics), and metabolites (metabolomics). In order to understand the mechanism, Omics technologies contribution is endless and in turn helping us to incorporate the new information in relatively short time for a better prospect. The biggest advantage of these technologies “Omics” provide us tools to identify and quantify these biomolecules and provide a large amount of knowledge and information that can be investigated to find various relationships between an organism’s genotype and its resulting phenotype in very short time. This chapter covers the genomic analysis (studying DNA constitution of the cells), epigenomics in assisted reproduction, proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics in art, and need of multi-omics.
