Question

(a) What is the mutant that helps us to understand the adaxial identity of leaf development and the laminar outgrowth?

(b) What is the mutant phenotype?

Definition Definition Observable physical traits or characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genetic makeup (genotype) as well as environmental factors. These traits can include anything from eye color or height to behavior or disease susceptibility. Understanding an organism's phenotype is important in fields such as genetics, medicine, and ecology.
