The developmental process that pertains to the organization of a leaf in three-dimensional space once the structure has initially formed. The process by which the anatomical structures of the leaf are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Development of a tissue or tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Development pertains to the process whose specific outcome is the progression of a structure over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. The process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The leaf morphogenesis process which results in the shaping of a simple leaf. A simple leaf is a leaf in which the lamina is undivided. The leaf morphogenesis process that results in the shaping of a compound leaf. A compound leaf is a leaf having two or more distinct leaflets that are evident as such from early in development. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the leaf over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a phyllome over time, from its formation to the mature structure. A phyllome is a collective term for all the different types of leaves appearing on plants. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the shoot over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Morphogenesis of an organ. An organ is defined as a tissue or set of tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Morphogenesis is the process by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions. The process by which the anatomical structures of the shoot are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The shoot is the part of a seed plant body that is usually above ground. The process that gives rise to a leaf. This process pertains to the initial formation of a structure from unspecified parts. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized epidermal cell acquires the specialized features of a trichome cell. An example of this process is found in Arabidopsis thaliana.
