Capsella grandiflora is a species of flowering plant in the Brassicaceae family.[1] It is referred to by the common name grand shepherd's-purse and is a close relative of Arabidopsis thaliana. It is predicted together with Capsella orientalis to be the surviving progenitor of Capsella bursa-pastoris.[3]
The main signature of this plant compared to other Capsella species is its wide flower petals.[4] Together with Capsella rubella, this plant is used as a model plant to study the evolution of self-incompatibility into self-compatibility in plant reproduction.[5]
