Arabidopsis thaliana leaf form evolved via loss of KNOX expression in leaves in association with a selective sweep.

Morphological diversity is often caused by altered gene expression of key developmental regulators. However, the precise developmental trajectories through which morphologies evolved remain poorly understood. It is also unclear to what degree genetic changes contributing to morphological divergence...
