Antirrhinum is a genus of flowering plants commonly known as snapdragons. The perennial Antirrhinum majus is a model organism for plant developmental biology, particularly for the study of floral morphology and genetics.
The belated arrival of the Antirrhinum genome sequence brings this classic model plant into the genomic age and opens up increased avenues for plant biology research.
