Alterations to leaf development in mir159ab plants. A and B, Transverse sections of 24-d-old wild-type Columbia-0 (Col-0; A) and mir159ab (B) fifth leaves. C and D, Cryo-fracture of 24-d-old wild-type (C) and mir159ab (D) fifth leaves. E and F, Differences between the wild type and mir159ab concerning mesophyll cell size (E) and cell density (F). G to J, SEM analysis of wild-type adaxial (G) and abaxial (H) as well as mir159ab adaxial (I) and abaxial (J) surfaces. K and L, Epidermal cell number (K) and cell size (L). M and N, Midvein cross-sections in the wild type (M) and mir159ab (N). P, Phloem; X, xylem. O to R, Venation pattern of 14-d-old wild-type (O) and mir159ab (Q) cotyledons as well as wild-type (P) and mir159ab (R) first leaves. Error bars represent sd, and bars = 50 μm (A–D, G–J, M, and N) and 200 μm (O–R). [See online article for color version of this figure.]
