Leaf shape has important implications for optimizing plant architecture for grain crops and horticultural crops. Examination of the cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) round leaf ( rl ) mutant by Song et al. (2019) revealed that the PINOID protein kinase affects leaf shape by altering auxin biosynthesis, transport, and signaling.
