Summation

PLA2 encodes a MEI2-like RNA binding protein which predominantly express in young leaf primordia. The primary function of PLA2 is to regulate the rate of leaf maturation. PLA2 also has an important function in the suppression of the vegetative program in the reproductive phase. Loss of function mutant analysis shows that PLA2 is a positive regulator of leaf size and a negative regulator of leaf initiation (Kawakatsu et al., 2006).
