Common Wall Cress

<em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em>, commonly known as common wall cress or thale cress, is a small annual flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae native to Eurasia and Africa, and now naturalized in North America, Australia, and other temperate regions worldwide. The species has become one of the most important model organisms in plant biology and genetics, owing to its small genome size, short generation time of approximately six weeks, prolific seed production, and ease of laboratory cultivation. <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> was the first plant to have its complete genome sequenced, in 2000, revolutionizing our understanding of plant molecular biology, development, and physiology. In nature, it typically grows in rocky outcrops, disturbed sandy soils, walls, roadsides, and waste ground, tolerating poor nutrient conditions and a wide range of climates. The plant produces a basal rosette of small ovate leaves, followed by an erect flowering stem bearing tiny white four-petaled flowers and slender silique seed pods. Despite its modest appearance, <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> has facilitated thousands of scientific discoveries in plant genetics, epigenetics, and stress responses. The species is currently assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN. Biological traits such as average lifespan, plant height up to 30 centimeters, and seed output are well-characterized in laboratory settings.

Red Avadavat

붉은아바다밧(Amandava amandava)은 남아시아 및 동남아시아 삼림의 화려하게 채색된 소형 되새로, 번식기 수컷은 온몸에 흰 점이 있는 진한 진홍색 깃털을 자랑한다. 파키스탄과 인도에서 인도네시아 동쪽에 이르는 물가 근처 키 큰 초지, 갈대밭, 관목지에 서식한다. 아시아 전역에서 인기 있는 애완용 새로 유럽, 일본, 카리브해 일부에 도입 개체군이 정착했다. 무리 지어 생활하며 조용하고 음악적인 울음소리를 낸다.
