[Molecular mechanism of leaf development].
Leaf plays important roles during plant development for their function of photosynthesis and transpiration. Leaf development includes initiation of leaf primordium and establishment of leaf polarity. Various studies indicate that leaf development is controlled through the interaction of transcription factors, small RNAs and auxin. This review focuses on re-cent advances in studying on leaf development and morphogenesis, and provides information on the regulation network in the process.
