A horizontal section of Arabidopsis shoot apex (round magenta region at the center) and several leaf primordia (triangular magenta and green regions) generated from the apex. Green and magenta colors are markers of the abaxial and the adaxial cell fates, respectively. Each leaf primordium shows both markers, but the green-to-magenta areal ratio is higher in young primordia (near the apex) than in older primordia (farther from the apex). This indicates that leaf cell fate shifts from the abaxial to the adaxial, according to the leaf development. See Tameshige et al.
