Check out this one of my sources: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3124625/ they provide several papers :)
I was about to write a comment about how A. thaliana isn’t the best model for studying human disease but I guess this link proves me wrong. Great work on the post!
Thanks. I'd check it.
There are ofc better organisms :P but never underestimate plants!
Nature is amazing, I never underestimate the activities of it. We need nature, nature don't need us :)
