The dataset consists of replicates of 14 mustants to study
metabolite pathways of genetically modified samples of Arabidopsis thaliana. Values
of 43 metabolites are measured for each sample which are supposed to monitor their
genetic changes. The data involve two mutants defective in starch
biosynthesis, pgm and isa2; four defective in starch
degradation sex1, sex4, mex1, and
dpe2; a mutant for comparison that accumulates starch as a
pleitropic effect, tpt; four uncharacterised mutants,
deg172, deg263, ke103, and sex3;
and three wild type plants, WsWT, RLDWT, and
ColWT. There are four replicates of all samples except the
last for which there are three http://www.plantphysiol.org/cgi/content/abstract/143/4/1484.
