Resolving Conflicts: Modeling Genetic Control of Plant Morphogenesis.
Computational modeling of tissue morphogenesis reveals how spatiotemporal patterns of gene activity control tissue shape by introducing several types of tissue conflict. These conflicts reflect genetic modulation of processes that influence the cellular mechanical properties and may underlie the enormous diversity of forms that have evolved in plants and animals.
