title: [Genetic control of early stages of leaf development].
abstract: The results of studies of genetic regulation of the early leaf morphogenesis, demarcation of the future primordium and transition of cells to determination, have been reviewed. The genetic systems of control of these developmental stages were shown to be conservative and hypotheses of possible mechanisms underlying the evolution of leaf morphology on their basis have been considered.
