Abstract

Abstract: Recent research has provided significant advances in the identification of gene products which influence leaf form. In this review, a summary of this progress is made and an outline sketched of the future directions and challenges facing workers in this area. An overall view is taken in which the present characterisation of the molecular architects of leaf morphogenesis is envisaged to link up eventually with the final downstream elements of differential tissue growth which, integrated over developmental time, lead to the range of leaf forms observed in nature.
