The patterns of axillary bud formation and the growth characteristics of side-shoots determine to a large extent the form of plants. Characterization of mutants in the monopodial plant Arabidopsis thaliana and in the sympodial tomato, as well as cloning of some of the respective genes, contributes to a better understanding of side-shoot development. Genes have been identified that influence the initiation of axillary meristems and the pattern of their subsequent development.
腋芽形成模式和侧枝的生长特性在很大程度上决定了植物的形态。对单轴植物拟南芥和合轴植物番茄中的突变体进行表征，以及克隆一些相应的基因，有助于更好地理解侧枝发育。已鉴定出影响腋生分生组织起始及其后续发育模式的基因。
