Prominent Genome Projects: Arabidopsis thaliana
Arabidopsis thaliana (Thale Cress or Mouse-ear Cress) is a small flowering plant related to cabbage and mustard. Aradidopsis is one of the model organisms for studying plant sciences, including genetics and plant development. The Arabidopsis genome was the first sequenced plant genome.

The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR)
TAIR is a comprehensive resource for integrated Arabidopsis data. It consists of a searchable relational database and tools to analyze the data. The site provides information about arabidopsis, news and events, and links to external internet resources.

MIPS Arabidopsis thaliana Database
The 'munich information center for protein sequences' (mips) Arabidopsis thaliana database (MAtDB) contains all sequences and annotation produced by the Arabidopsis Genome Initiative (AGI). Through the inclusion of mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes and publicly available sequence and annotation data from other AGI groups the site provides a comprehensive presentation of the whole genome of Arabidopsis thaliana.

RIKEN Arabidopsis + Genome Encyclopedia (RARGE)
The RARGE web site provides services for resource data searching (cDNAs, transposom mutants and microarray experiments) for all biologic researchers.
TIGR Arabidopsis thaliana Database
The site provides a collection of information on Arabidopsis genome research at TIGR.
