Leaf primordia are the precursors to mature leaves and are responsible for initiating leaf development. They arise from the shoot apical meristem, a region of actively dividing cells at the tip of the plant shoot.
The formation of leaf primordia is a crucial step in plant morphogenesis. These small structures begin as
