Transcript
Arabidopsis thaliana Katie Dalpozzo Model Organism • Small (20 cm),unremarkable spindly weed, with tiny, white, four-petalled flowers • Six week lifespan • No immediate agricultural importance and is not thought to cure any disease • Prolific seed production and easy cultivation in restricted space • A large number of mutant lines and genomic resources Genome • 5 chromosomes, 25, 498 genes, and 140 million bases – Smallest genome of any plant • First complete genome sequence of a plant • Useful plant-specific gene functions for crop enhancement – Grow crops in salty or metallic soils or in very cold or hot climates Sequence • Sequenced by Arabidopsis Genome Initiative (AGI) Started in 1996, planned to finish by 2004, but actually finished in 2000 • Current and future research done by The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR) • 8,811 articles on Arabidopsis
