Moss transcriptome and beyond.
The ancient land plant Physcomitrella patens is a model system that is becoming increasingly important for plant functional genomics because gene knockouts can be produced with relative ease. Recently, several EST-sequencing projects have been launched as a first step towards a thorough functional characterization of the moss. However, for careful comparison with other plant model systems, the complete genomic sequence is needed as well as the transcriptome.
