Abstract
The invention features a method for identifying a gene associated with a desired phenotype. This method includes the steps of: (a) providing a plurality of cell cultures that include plant, animal, or fungal cells capable of exhibiting a desired phenotype; (b) contacting each of at least a subset of said cells with a stimulus that (i) induces said cells to exhibit the phenotype, or (ii) does not induce said cell cultures to exhibit the phenotype; (c) determining the presence of the phenotype in the cell cultures of step (b); and (d) identifying a gene having increased expression in response to stimuli that induce the phenotype but do not have increased expression in response to stimuli that do not induce the phenotype.
