   Introduction
 
Over the past 20 years, Arabidopsis has been the most important model in plant biology worldwide. Its genome sequence was determined with high reliability in 2000 by the Arabidopsis Genome Initiative. This sequence information has become the fundamental basis for all plant scientists when analyzing genomic information and relating it to plant functions. Indeed, most plant scientists would agree that the year 2000 was the key turning point that determined the direction of plant research for the subsequent decade. Following Arabidopsis, the next plant genome to be fully sequenced with high reliability was rice, accomplished by the International Rice Genome Sequencing Project in 2004 (International Rice Genome Sequencing Project 2005Go) (http://rgp.dna.affrc.go.jp/E/IRGSP/index.html). Rice is a model crop of particular importance for . . . [Full Text of this Article]
