Plant Development: Keeping on the Straight and Narrow and Flat
Abstract
Plant leaves have functionally specialized upper and lower sides. Two recent studies show that these opposite identities are derived from a pre-pattern in the shoot meristem and the border between them is maintained by mobile small RNAs with morphogen-like properties.
