Apical notches remodel in response to damage, demonstrating that the apical cell layer acts as a communicating population rather than containing one master- controller Apical Cell and subordinate subapical cells.
intra- and inter-meristem communication, and for meristem regeneration, which requires balance between auxin sources and sinks.
The cells at the centre divide slowly, while those at the periphery divide faster
The cells at the centre divide slowly, while those at the periphery divide faster. This moves the daughter cells outwards as they mature, where they become differentiated into various tissues and cell types. The meristematic cells remain in the centre to replenish the stem cell pool. This spatial distinction between division and differentiation all...
Secondary meristem formation is induced by the formation of local auxin maxima and minima arising out of auxin gradients extending from the apical meristems (6).
