SUMMARY: System-level mechanisms in plant development and plasticity: From
  regulatory networks and epigenetic landscapes to morphogenesis - Elena R.

DESCRIPTION:A system-level mechanistic approach to plant development has b
 een explored using regulatory network and epigenetic landscape models in v
 arious Arabidopsis thaliana organs and life-stages: Shoot apical transitio
 ns\, flower development and floral organ specification\, epidermal cell su
 b-differentiation\, stem cell niche patterning\, root development and cell
  cycle regulation. I will provide an overview on how such models have illu
 minated our understanding of cell differentiation and pattern formation du
 ring morphogenesis\, as well as our perspectives in using such formal appr
 oaches to understanding plasticity and phenotypical evolution.\n\n
