Arabidopsis thaliana: another "model organism"
This little plant has become to plant biology what Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans are to animal biology.

Arabidopsis Sequencing Scales Up
Scientists soon will have access to the first complete genetic information of a flowering plant.

Arabidopsis thaliana: A small member of the mustard family (kitchen cress). It has a very small genome (130-140 Mbp), five chromosomes and contains almost no repetitive DNA. Its genome will be completely sequenced by the end of 2000.

Arabidopsis has 10,000 or so more genes than the fruit fly-Arabidopsis has almost as many genes as a human.

- The first flowering plant to have its entire genome sequenced.

AraCyc Aracyc is a tool for querying and visualizing Arabidopsis biochemical pathways.Pathways can be browsed or searched by a variety of parameter such as reactions, compunds, genes and enzymes.

Model organisms for developmental biology include the round worm Caenorhabditis elegans,[38] the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster,[39] the zebrafish Danio rerio[40], the mouse Mus musculus,[41], and the weed Arabidopsis thaliana.
