The thale cress Arabidopsis thaliana is increasingly popular among plant scientists - it is small, easy to grow, and makes flowers, and the sequence of its small and simple genome has been completed. This is a complete laboratory manual on this model organism and deals with genomic and proteomic approaches to its biology.
