Rice, genome

Plant genome projects, notably the rice genome project, have also attracted large companies, like Monsanto, Novartis, and DuPont. Arabidopsis thaliana, a brassicacean plant that has become a model in plant genetics, was the first flowering plant to have the genome sequence completed Arabidopsis Initiative 2000).
