About
Capsella rubella, the pink shepherd's-purse, is a plant species in the genus Capsella, and a member of the mustard family. It has a very similar appearance to C. bursa-pastoris, but C. rubella has a diploid as opposed to a tetraploid genome. The species is also a very close relative of Arabidopsis thaliana.
