Plants produce a diverse array of compounds through an extensive, evolutionarily malleable network of metabolic pathways. These metabolites are typically classified into two types—primary and specialized—with most of the diversity occurring among specialized metabolites (Fig. 1A). Metabolite presence–absence and types vary dynamically in an individual plant (within/between tissues/organs, developmental stages, across the circadian cycle), between populations, and also between species. Conservatively, it was estimated that each species harbors~ 4.7 unique metabolites, and over a million metabolites were predicted to exist across the plant kingdom (Afendi et al., 2012).The scale of metabolite diversity raises multiple challenges for the study of plant specialized metabolism. First, it creates the challenge of identifying these compounds. While genomic and transcriptomic technologies have advanced significantly in the last decade, the complexity of metabolite structures and their chemical properties hinders adoption of standardized protocols for their detection. Second, the lineage-specific nature of specialized metabolism (Fig. 1A) creates the challenge of identifying biosynthetic enzymes and studying their evolution in non-reference species. Finally, there is still much to be understood about the ecological importance of chemical structural diversity in a single plant and across populations. In this article, we discuss these challenges and potential opportunities in more detail.
