Arabidopsis thaliana is the first higher plant to be fully sequenced and annotated, and serves as the primary model organism for gene expression research in higher plants. The content on this microarray is derived from the ATH1 v.5 database of The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and from the Arabidopsis MPSS database at the University of Delaware. Nearly 40,000 features represents 28,500 genes from TIGR and more than 10,000 unannotated transcripts from University of Delaware. This microarray will be useful for scientists studying gene activity associated with various plant organ functions, stages of growth, and biotic and abiotic stresses.
