Apr 1, 2018 · Only later was thaliana migrated into the genus Arabidopsis (Holl and Heynhold 1842). After continuing controversy about the placement of the species into the Arabidopsis genus, the Berlin code cemented the name by establishing Arabidopsis thaliana as the type for the genus (Greuter et al. 1988). Early observers did not esteem Arabidopsis.

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 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 (see below), and a worldwide research community has developed many other genetic resources and tools ...
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.
Sep 27, 2018 · This taxonomic history—changes of names on the genus and species level following distinct rules provided by the ‘Code of nomenclature’ (Turland et al., 2018)—is recapitulated here in in some detail, and it should be kept in mind that previous work published under species names such as Arabidopsis pumila, Arabidopsis griffithiana, or Arabidopsis wallichii (to name just a few) is in fact ...

Apr 4, 2002 · For geneticists, the main reasons to focus on A. thaliana were simply its short life cycle and small size, ideal characteristics to make it the botanical equivalent of Drosophila melanogaster (the fact that A. thaliana is mostly a selfing species Abbott and Gomes 1989 also simplifies genetic analyses, admittedly at the expense of a difficult handling of the small flowers during pollination).
