Curvature-driven spatial patterns in growing 3D domains: A mechanochemical model for phyllotaxis.
Here we discuss the formation of phyllotactic patterns in the shoot apical meristem (SAM) of plants, where the spatial distribution of the phytohormone auxin determines phyllotaxis in a domain that is growing and changing in time. We assume that the concentration of auxin modifies the mechanical pro...
