Moving with the flow: what transport laws reveal about cell division and expansion

Wendy Kuhn Silk. J Plant Res. 2006 Jan.

Abstract

This material was presented as a keynote talk for the symposium, "Crosstalk between cell division and expansion," organized by G.T.S. Beemster and H. Tsukaya at the International Botanical Congress, Vienna in July, 2005. The review focuses on the utility of continuity equations to understand relationships among cell size, division and expansion; insights from Lagrangian or cell-specific descriptions of developmental variables; and a growth-diffusion equation to show effects of root growth zones on the surrounding soil.
