BLADE-ON-PETIOLE genes temporally and developmentally regulate the sheath to blade ratio of rice leaves
Despite the importance of proximal-distal patterning of leaves in cereal productivity, the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, the authors find that the ratio of sheath to blade in rice leaf shifts depends on the expression levels of BLADE-ON-PETIOLE genes.
