Amajorchallengetounderstandingthegeneticbasisofinterspeciesdiversityisthat,inatleastsomecases,minorchangesinthestructureorexpressionofagenemayleadtomajorchangesinphenotype.Thiswasrecentlyillustratedforthegenesthatcontrolmodificationsoffattyacidsinplants(13).Higherplantscollectivelypro-ducemorethan200fattyacids,whichac-cumulateasstorageoilsinseeds.Thesefattyacidsdifferprimarilybecauseofthepresenceofdoublebonds,hydroxyls,ep-oxygroups,triplebonds,orsecondarymodificationsofthesefunctionalgroupsatvariouscarbonsalongthefattyacylchains.Ithasrecentlybecomeapparentthatthesefunctionalgroupsareproducedbyafamilyofcloselyrelatedfattyacyldesaturase-likeenzymes(14).Theobservationthatasfewasfouraminoacidsubstitutionscancon-vertadesaturasetoahydroxylaseillus-trateshownewchemicalconstituentscanaccumulatewithouttheevolutionofanob-viouslydistinctenzyme(13).Largegenefamilieshavealsobeenobservedforcyto-chromeP450s,enzymesinvolvedinpoly-saccharidebiosynthesis,disease-relatedgenes,transcriptionfactors,proteinkinases,andphos-phatasestonameafew.Thus,amajorchal-lengeassociatedwithexploitingtheexplosionofgenomeinformationwillbeindeducingrulesthatcanpredicttheprecisefunctionofmembersofgenefamilies.

TheavailabilityofextensiveESTinfor-mationformanyspecies,inconjunctionwiththecompletesequencesofriceandArabidopsis,willallowunambiguousin-sightintothequestionofhowsimilarthegenomesofhigherplantsare.WhentheArabidopsisandricesequencesarecom-plete,itwillbepossibletodirectlycomparealltheESTandotheravailablesequencesfromvariousplantswiththegenomicse-quencesfromthemodelgenomes.Ourpre-liminaryanalysisofavailablesequencessuggeststhatmostgeneproductsfromhigherplantsexhibitadequatesequencesimilaritytodeducedaminoacidsequencesofotherplantgenestopermitassignment
AssigningFunctiontoGenes
Oneofthemajorefficienciesthathasemergedfromplantgenomeresearchtodateisthatabout54%ofhigherplantgenescanbeassignedsomedegreeoffunctionbycomparingthemwiththesequencesofgenesofknownfunction(16)(Fig.3).Ineffect,auniversalbiologyhascoalescedfromthecommonlanguageofgeneandproteinsequences.Unfortunately,knowingthegeneralfunctionfrequentlydoesnotprovideaninsightintothespecificroleintheorganism.Forinstance,onthebasisofsequenceanalysis,about13%ofArabidop-sisgenesareinferredtobeinvolvedintranscriptionorsignaltransduction(16).However,knowingthatageneencodesakinaseortranscriptionfactordoesnotpro-videanyusefulinformationaboutwhatpro-cessesarecontrolledbythesegenes.Thus,completionofthegenomesequencesofAra-bidopsisandricewillbefollowedbyasec-ondphaseoflarge-scalefunctionalgenomicsinwhichallofthe20,000to25,000genesthatmakeupthebasicangiospermgenomewillbeassignedfunctiononthebasisofexperimentalevidence.Consideringthatthecombinedeffortsoftheplantbiologycom-

AmajorlimitationtotheanalysisofgenefunctionbymutationisthatahighdegreeofgeneduplicationisapparentinArabidopsis(16)andis,therefore,probablyacommonfeatureofplantgenomes.BecausemanyofthegeneduplicationsinArabidopsisareverytightlylinked,itusuallywillnotbefeasibletoproducedoublemutantsbygeneticrecom-bination.Apossiblesolutionmaybetousehomologousrecombinationtoeliminatetan-demgenessimultaneouslybygenereplace-ment(19).Alternatively,amethodforpro-ducingpointmutationsbyusingRNA-DNAhybridsmaybeuseful(20).Bytargetingmutagenicsequencesthatintroducestopco-donstoregionsthatareconservedamongallduplicatesitmaybepossibletogenerateallcombinationsofnullmutationsinallmem-bersofamultigenefamilyfromoneexperi-ment.Althoughthesemethodsareamenabletoagene-by-geneapproach,theyarenotwellsuitedtoahighthroughputapproachbecauseoflowefficiencyorbecauseofthenecessityofregeneratingplantsfromsingleculturedcells.BecauseoftheeasewithwhichlargenumbersoftransgenicArabidopsisplantscanbegeneratedbyinfectingflowerswithAgrobacteriumtumefacienscontaininganin-sertionalmutagen(21),amethodofgenesilencingbasedonproducingdouble-strand-edRNAfrombidirectionaltranscriptionofgenesintransgenicplantsmaybebroadlyusefulforhigh-throughputgeneinactivation(22).Thismethodcould,inprinciple,bede-signedtousepromotersthatareexpressedinonlyafewcelltypesorataparticulardevel-opmentalstageorinresponsetoanexternalstimulus.Thiscouldsignificantlyobviateproblemsassociatedwiththelethalityofsomemutations.Althoughthemechanismisnotyetunderstood,itbearssomeresem-blancetodouble-strandedRNA–mediatedgenesilencinginnematodes(23).
