The ABRC was established in 1991, with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), as a central repository for Arabidopsis resources. The Center is associated with The Ohio State University. Our mission is to acquire, propagate and maintain resources using best practices and to make them available to researchers and educators around the world. All materials are donated by researchers and distributed with their permission... The ABRC serves a dynamic community of plant researchers with a common goal to understand the basic processes of flowering plants, as well as to apply this understanding to further crop improvement. The activities of the Center are essential towards fulfilling the community goal of having multiple mutant alleles for every one of the 27,000 genes in the Arabidopsis genome...
