Encodes a pleckstrin homology domain- and DUF828-containing protein. Mutants have defects in leaf vascular pattering, with vascular bundles that fail to meet distally in both the cotyledons and leaves. Necessary to the formation of the closed leaf vascular pattern characteristic of dicot leaves in response to auxin. Redundant with FKD2. FKD1 may influence PIN1 localization in an auxin dependent manner. proposed to be a key component of the auxin canalization pathway.
