The development of plant leaves follows a common basic program that is flexible and is
adjusted according to species, developmental stage and environmental circumstances …

The flowering of Vitis vinifera spreads over two seasons. Tendrils and inflorescences have a
common origin known as anlage or uncommitted primordia. The fate of the uncommitted …

The world's most revered and eloquent interpreter of evolutionary ideas offers here a work of
explanatory force unprecedented in our time—a landmark publication, both for its historical …

Plant lateral organs are often elaborated through repetitive formation of developmental units,
which progress robustly in predetermined patterns along their axes. Leaflets in compound …

Vegetative and reproductive phases alternate regularly during sympodial growth in tomato.
In wild-type 'indeterminate'plants, inflorescences are separated by three vegetative nodes. In …

Angiosperm leaves manifest a remarkable diversity of shapes that range from
developmental sequences within a shoot and within crown response to microenvironment to …

A classical role of the hormone auxin is in the formation of flowers at the periphery of the
reproductive shoot apex. Mutants in regulators of polar auxin transport or in the auxin …

Medicago truncatula is a fast‐emerging model for the study of legume functional biology. We
used the tobacco retrotransposon Tnt1 to tag the Medicago genome and generated over …

The timing of flowering, and in particular the degree to which it is responsive to the
environment, is a key factor in the adaptation of a given species to various eco-geographic …

The central nervous system (CNS) loses the ability to regenerate early during development,
but it is not known why. The retina has long served as a simple model system for study of …
