A ClearSee-Based Clearing Protocol for 3D Visualization of Arabidopsis thaliana Embryos
Tissue clearing methods combined with confocal microscopy have been widely used for studying developmental biology. In plants, ClearSee is a reliable clearing method that is applicable to a wide range of tissues and is suitable for gene expression ...

On growth and form: spatio-temporal pattern formation in biology
Spatio-temporal pattern formation is a major area of research in the field of mathematical biology. This book represents research into various aspects of spatio-temporal pattern and form, such as developmental biology, reaction-diffusion systems, and ...

Curvature-driven spatial patterns in growing 3D domains: A mechanochemical model for phyllotaxis. [PDF]
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.

Summary: Gene regulatory networks govern pattern formation and differentiation during embryonic development. Segmentation of somites, precursors of the vertebral column among other tissues, is jointly controlled by temporal signals from the segmentation ...

A hybrid discrete-continuum approach to model Turing pattern formation. [PDF]
Since its introduction in 1952, with a further refinement in 1972 by Gierer and Meinhardt, Turing's (pre-)pattern theory (the chemical basis of morphogenesis) has been widely applied to a number of areas in developmental biology, where evolving cell and ...

Mechanisms of Pattern Formation, Morphogenesis, and Evolution [PDF]
This chapter introduces the diversity of ways in which developmental mechanisms lead to pattern formation and morphogenesis. Developmental mechanisms are described as gene networks in which at least one of the genes affects some cell behavior (cell ...

A contraction-reaction-diffusion model for circular pattern formation in embryogenesis
Reaction-diffusion models have been widely used to elucidate pattern formation in developmental biology. More recently, they have also been applied in modeling cell fate patterning that mimic early-stage human development events utilizing geometrically ...

Systems Biology and the Integration of Mechanistic Explanation and Mathematical Explanation [PDF]
The paper discusses how systems biology is working toward complex accounts that integrate explanation in terms of mechanisms and explanation by mathematical models—which some philosophers have viewed as rival models of explanation.

Signaling to stomatal initiation and cell division
Stomata are two-celled valves that control epidermal pores whose opening and spacing optimizes shoot-atmosphere gas exchange. Arabidopsis stomata formation undergoes at least one asymmetric division and a symmetric division.

Summary: Timely progression of a genetic program is critical for embryonic development. However, gene expression involves inevitable fluctuations in biochemical reactions leading to substantial cell-to-cell variability (gene expression noise). One of the
