Growth Stages of Arabidopsis thaliana (Image 2)
Worldwide research to uncover more secrets of plant biochemistry is focusing on the simple weed Arabidopsis thaliana. This image is part of a series that shows the plant as it buds, normally flowers (pictured here) and then grows in cauliflower mutant form, which was engineered to aid in identifying genes.
