Whether cell division is a driving force in plant morphogenesis has long been debated. In this review, the evidence for the existence of cell division-dependent and cell division-independent mechanisms of plant morphogenesis is discussed. The potential mechanisms themselves are then analysed, as is our understanding of the regulation of these mechanisms and how they are integrated into development, with particular emphasis on data arising from the investigation of leaf morphogenesis. The analysis indicates the existence of both cell division-dependent and cell division-independent mechanisms in leaf morphogenesis and highlights the importance of future investigations to unravel the co-ordination of these mechanisms.
细胞分裂是否是植物形态发生的驱动力长期以来一直存在争议。在这篇综述中，讨论了植物形态发生中存在细胞分裂依赖性和细胞分裂非依赖性机制的证据。然后分析了潜在机制本身，以及我们对这些机制的调控及其如何整合到发育过程的理解，特别强调了来自叶片形态发生研究的数据。分析表明叶片形态发生中存在细胞分裂依赖性和细胞分裂非依赖性机制，并突出了未来研究揭示这些机制协调作用的重要性。
