New components in genetic regulation of age‐dependent compound leaf architecture in pea

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a classic model for compound leaf development. Pea leaves typically consist of a proximal series of paired lateral leaflets substituted distally by filiform tendrils, and the number of lateral organ pairs increases with ontogeny. This gradient has been proposed as an expression of heteroblasty...
