Leaf morphology and plant height are two agronomic traits closely related to tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) yield and quality. The study of leaf morphology and plant stature mutants will greatly contribute to the fields of plant architecture breeding and developmental biology. Here, we report the ch...
