Abstract excerpt
Polarity along the adaxial-abaxial axis of the leaf is essential for leaf development and morphogenesis. One of the genes that encodes a putative transcription factor regulating adaxial-abaxial polarity, FILAMENTOUS FLOWER (FIL), is expressed in the abaxial region of the leaf primordia. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling the polarized expression of FIL remain unclear. Here, we analyzed an enlarged fil...
