Nutations in plant shoots: Endogenous and exogenous factors in the presence of mechanical deformations
D. Agostinelli, A. DeSimone, G. Noselli
The paper presents a 3D morphoelastic rod model to study plant shoot morphogenesis, showing how elastic deflections and endogenous cues influence circumnutating behaviors through Hopf bifurcations and oscillatory mechanisms.
