Comparison of Leaf Shape between a Photinia Hybrid and One of Its Parents [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Leaf shape and size can vary between hybrids and their parents. However, this has seldom been quantitatively tested. Photinia × fraseri is an important landscaping plant in East Asia as a hybrid between evergreen shrubs P. glabra and P. serratifolia. Its

Overview of molecular mechanisms of plant leaf development: a systematic review
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Leaf growth initiates in the peripheral region of the meristem at the apex of the stem, eventually forming flat structures. Leaves are pivotal organs in plants, serving as the primary sites for photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration.
