Abstract: The spiral arrangement (phyllotaxis) of leaves is a shared morphology in land plants, and exhibits diversity constrained to the Fibonacci sequence. Phyllotaxis in vascular plants is produced at a multicellular meristem, whereas bryophyte phyllotaxis emerges… read more here.

Abstract: Phyllotaxis describes the periodic arrangement of plant organs most conspicuously floral. Oscillators generally underlie periodic phenomena. A hypothetical algorithm generates phyllotaxis regulated by the Hechtian growth oscillator of the stem apical meristem (SAM) protoderm. The… read more here.
