It is an arabidopsis plant with the AADL protein "turned off." Scientists insert a nucleotide into the gene sequence which stops the AADL gene from being able to function. The AADL gene tells a ribosome to make the AADL protein. With it being turned off, the AADL protein never gets made.
Arabidopsis lyrata was created in 1753.
The arabidopsis plant has five chromosomes
Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre was created in 1991.
Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center was created in 1991.
Arabidopsis is used as a model for scientists when they change genes in other plants. This is because scientists have already mapped Arabidopsis' genome, thus allowing them to be able to change one gene about the plant and see how it effects the plant.
Investigating the genetic basis of plant responses to environmental stress in Arabidopsis. Studying the role of specific genes in plant development and growth using Arabidopsis as a model system. Analyzing the interactions between Arabidopsis and beneficial microorganisms to understand plant-microbe interactions. Exploring the potential of Arabidopsis as a platform for studying plant secondary metabolites and their impact on human health.
The roots of Arabidopsis are very fragile hence a lot of injury to the root zone will be caused by taking its seedling out of agar and putting it back.

Arabidopsis thaliana is commonly used as a model plant because of its small genome size, short life cycle, ease of growth in the lab, and well-characterized genetics. Due to its genetic similarities with other flowering plants, research findings from Arabidopsis can often be applied to understand broader aspects of plant biology and development in other species.
Aziz Fatima Bano has written: 'Glucosinolates in Arabidopsis'
Arabidopsis is considered a model organism in scientific research because it has a small genome size, a short life cycle, and is easy to grow and manipulate in the laboratory. These characteristics make it a convenient and efficient tool for studying plant biology and genetics.
