Coupled ultradian growth and curvature oscillations during gravitropic movement in disturbed wheat coleoptiles.

To grow straight and upright, plants need to regulate actively their posture. Gravitropic movement, which occurs when plants modify their growth and curvature to orient their aerial organ against the force of gravity, is a major feature of this postural control. A recent model has shown that gravice...
