A Unifying Modeling of Plant Shoot Gravitropism With an Explicit Account of the Effects of Growth

Gravitropism, the slow reorientation of plant growth in response to gravity, is a major determinant of the form and posture of land plants. Recently a universal model of shoot gravitropism, the AC model, has been presented, in which the dynamics of the tropic movement is only determined by the contr...
