Description Frequently twisted leaves of dwarf plants roll in reverse direction (abaxial side is inside). Abaxial epidermis of leaf has adaxial characteristics. ADL genes are required for specifying abaxial cell identity in leaf. In adl1 and adl2, bulliform cells, characteristic of adaxial epidermis of rice leaves, were also present in abaxial epidermis. In normal leaf blades, mesophyll cells in abaxial side are interrupted in the central-marginal direction by sclerenchyma cells connecting vascular bundle and epidermis, but mesophyll cells occupy the space between small vascular bundles and abaxial epidermis in mutant. Leaf development is closely related to organization of shoot apical meristem (SAM). In mature adl mutant embryos, SAM was flat. In the vegetative phase, leaf primordia of adl mutants are initiated extremely distal to the SAM in the shoot apices of adl1 and adl2; compared to those of wild type.
