Abstract
Plants display remarkable developmental plasticity and can regenerate complete organ systems from a few existing cells in response to external inductive cues. A complete shoot system can be regenerated from undifferentiated callus through the age-old practice of de novo organogenesis. Recent studies have implicated a number of developmentally regulated genes in this process. While these studies provide a deterministic view, unitary principles associated with self-organisation of regenerating cells remain largely unknown. I will discuss how interplay between mechanical and biochemical effects sculpts the dome shaped meristem from regenerating progenitors in the absence of pre-patterning cues.
