Patterning precision under non-linear morphogen decay and molecular noise

Morphogen gradients can instruct cells about their position in a patterned tissue. Non-linear morphogen decay has been suggested to increase gradient precision by reducing the sensitivity to variability in the morphogen source. Here, we use cell-based simulations to quantitatively compare the positi...
