Interpretive Summary: The original discovery of CUC2 by Aida et al. (1997) provided a valuable tool to investigate plant organogenesis as well as insight that led to a vital understanding of the importance of first establishing a boundary in order to make an organ. This commentary discusses the history of that discovery and its implications.
