A stochastic multicellular model identifies biological watermarks from disorders in self-organized patterns of phyllotaxis

Exploration of developmental mechanisms classically relies on analysis of pattern regularities. Whether disorders induced by biological noise may carry information on building principles of developmental systems is an important debated question. Here, we addressed theoretically this question using p...
