Abstract:Background. The same species of plant can exhibit highly diverse sizes and shapes of organs that are genetically determined. Defining genetic variation underlying this morphological diversity is an important objective in evolutionary studies and it also helps identify the functions of genes influencing plant growth and development. Extensive screens of mutagenised Arabidopsis populations have identified multiple genes and mechanisms affecting organ size and shape, but relatively few studies have exploited the … Show more
