Why Microgreens are a Great System!!
Experiments are fast (a few days)
Experiments are simple (put in light, measure)
Data show that plants are not Arabidopsis
Information creates new IP and information for growers\
These are a high-value specialty crop and there is significant interest in new colors and flavors.
New concepts in basic plant science

Microgreens are a high-value system to begin to investigate the limits of light effects on seedling traits
Specific wavelengths are now being investigated for the abiltiy to change post-harvest quality.

Conclusions
Bulk-segregant analysis of transcriptome data can be used to identify candidate genes for flavors.
New regulators of well-known pathways can be identified through analysis of transcript correlation networks.
Transcriptomes from small populations can be powerful if samples are carefully chosen, and can be mined for new findings.
