Abstract	The regulation of metabolic pathways in plants is constantly tuned in order to suit the needs of development and fitness. Our main research objective is to unravel networks of genes and proteins which coordinate the activity of metabolic pathways, predominantly secondary metabolism, during plant development and stress response. An integrated investigation of several members of the Solanacea family (mainly tomato, potato and eggplant), rather than studying a single plant, provided us with unprecedented insights to metabolic biology in these species. Most if not all processes characterized, impact to a certain degree key quality, nutritional and post-harvest traits of these crop plants. Integrating cutting-edge transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics tools together with genes co-expression assays were of great value in making several key discoveries. In a recent example, combined co-expression analysis and metabolic profiling in tomato and potato led to the discovery of the multi-step, core pathway leading to the formation of the renowned Solanum alkaloids including the biosynthesis of their precursor, cholesterol. This class of molecules represent important anti-nutritional compounds in these crop plants. In the presentation, I will highlight several advanced technologies and genetic research tools and the invaluable knowledge on core metabolic traits obtained through combining them in a single study. Most if not all could be applied in the coming years to the study of key traits in other, less studied plant species. L20.2
