Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Phyllotactic pattern results from genetic control of lateral primordia size (physiological or physical) relative to the size of organogenic lateral surface of shoot apical meristem (SAM). In order to understand the diversity of patterns and ontogenetic transitions of phyllotaxis we have developed a geometric model allowing changes of the above proportion in a computer simulation of SAM's growth. The results of serial simulations confirmed that many phyllotactic patterns (including most esoteric ones) and ontogenetic transitions known from real plant model cases can be easily obtained in silico. Properties of virtual patterns often deviated from those of ideal mathematical lattices but closely resembled those of the natural ones. This proved the assumptions of the model, such as initiation in the first available space or ontogenetic changes in primordia size, to be quite realistic. Confrontation of simulation results with some sequences of real phyllotactic patterns (case study Verbena) questions the autonomy of SAM in its organogenic activity and suggests the involvement of unknown signal positioning primordia in a non-random manner in the first available space.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
