Arabidopsis / Cultured plant cells, genes

Arabidopsis is a recognized representative model plant used in various research fields. It is a small plant with a short life cycle of only 3 months. Under laboratory conditions, each Arabidopsis plant produces thousands of seeds. In addition, it requires a simple procedure for transformation, and the plant’s entire genome sequence has been annotated. Japan is a leader in the field of cultured plant cells, which have been widely used in studies on cell biology and the production of useful substances.
