Cover Caption
On the cover: Striking diversity in leaf complexity is found between wild tomato species (Solanum cheesmaniae and Solanum galapagense) collected by Charles Darwin from the Galapagos Islands. Despite the relatively recent divergence of the two species, S. cheesmaniae (top left) displays unipinnately compound leaves resembling cultivated tomato (S. lycopersicum, bottom left), whereas the leaves of S. galapagense (top right) have increased complexity, usually producing three orders of leaflets. Map-based cloning of the responsible gene with an introgression of the S. galapagense leaf trait into cultivated tomato (Petroselinum, bottom right) by Kimura et al. (pp. 672–677) revealed that overexpression of a novel KNOX gene is the cause for this natural variation.
