Arabidopsis thaliana is an annual (rarely biennial) plant, usually growing to 20–25 cm tall. [6] The leaves form a rosette at the base of the plant, with a few leaves also on the flowering stem. The basal leaves are green to slightly purplish in color, 1.5–5 cm long, and 2–10 mm broad, with an entire to coarsely serrated margin; the stem ...
Arabidopsis (rockcress) is a genus in the family Brassicaceae.They are small flowering plants related to cabbage and mustard.This genus is of great interest since it contains thale cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), one of the model organisms used for studying plant biology and the first plant to have its entire genome sequenced.
Arabidopsis thaliana, currently the most popular model plant. This herbaceous dicot of the family Brassicaceae is closely related to the mustard plant. Its small stature and short generation time facilitates rapid genetic studies, [11] and many phenotypic and biochemical mutants have been mapped. [11] Arabidopsis was the first plant to have its ...
The following three genes in Arabidopsis thaliana possess both common and independent functions in floral transition: FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), LEAFY (LFY), SUPPRESSOR OF OVEREXPRESSION OF CONSTANS1 (SOC1, also called AGAMOUS-LIKE20). [5] SOC1 is a MADS-box-type gene, which integrates responses to photoperiod, vernalization and gibberellins. [4]
The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR) is a community resource and online model organism database of genetic and molecular biology data for the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, commonly known as mouse-ear cress. [1]
Arabidopsis thaliana is a first class model organism and the single most important species for fundamental research in plant molecular genetics. A. thaliana was the first plant for which a high-quality reference genome sequence was determined and a worldwide research community has developed many other genetic resources and tools.

Arabidopsis thaliana. Arabidopsis thaliana in effect performs division to control starch use at night. [8] Most plants accumulate starch by day, then metabolize it at a fixed rate during night time. However, if the onset of darkness is unusually early, Arabidopsis thaliana reduces its use of starch by an amount that effectively requires ...
