The evolution of plant architecture
Abstract
The vascular plants have evolved from a simple body plan that has diversified into the vast array of architectures seen in plants today. Much architectural diversity results from the varied growth patterns of apical and axillary meristems. Current research is showing that meristem growth patterns are regulated genetically and hormonally, and the genes that control these processes are being identified and characterized.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
