And growth on form? How tissue expansion generates novel shapes, colours and enhance biological functions of Turing colour patterns of Eukaryotes. by Pierre Galipot

“…We show that far beyond the particular feline coat pattern, putative-growth Turing color patterns are present in many diverse lineages of plants and animals and seem absent in Fungi and unicellular lineages. Using models, we show the many ways growth can induce new shapes and colors, and that putative-growth pattern locations correlates with tissue hot spots of growth, suggesting the latter as the underlying mechanism. …”
