Common products:
Selaginella moellendorffii is used as a model plant for comparative and evolutionary biology.

Scientific/model-organism use:
- Reference genome and transcript resources for lycophytes and early land plants; genome assembly and annotation available in public databases (NCBI BioProject PRJNA13165; Phytozome; CoGe), with gene model identifiers maintained across releases (e.g., v1.0 and later updates).
- Standardized transformation and transient expression protocols enable functional and reverse genetics; virus-induced gene silencing (VGS) vectors facilitate gene knockdown.
- Community databases curate genetic stocks, vectors, and protocols; distributed seed lines support reproducibility and cross-lab benchmarking.

Properties relevant to use:
- Compact, diploid genome with few repeats and predicted genes supports tractable genomics and comparative analyses.
- Phylogenetic position as a lycophyte provides an outgroup for studying angiosperm pathways (e.g., hormones, cell wall) and early plant evolution.
- Well-curated gene models and functional annotations enable robust orthology and gene-family analyses for hypothesis-driven work.
