2 unusual facts about Morphogenesis


Somaclonal variation

If no visual, morphogenic changes are apparent, other plant screening procedures must be applied.

Texture synthesis

It is believed that these systems show behaviors which are qualitatively equivalent to real processes (Morphogenesis) found in the nature, such as animal markings (shells, fish, wild cats...).


Fraser syndrome

The genetic background of this disease has been linked to a gene called FRAS1, which seems to be involved in skin epithelial morphogenesis during early development.

Los Angeles Free Music Society

LAFMS groups that performed over the weekend included Airway, Smegma, John Duncan, Extended Organ (with David Toop sitting in), Tom Recchion, Le Forte Four, The Tenses, and Dinosaurs With Horns, with special guest performances by Hijokaidan, Incapacitants, Morphogenesis, Mark Durgan with Spoils & Relics, Raionbashi & Kutzkelina, and Bill Kouligas + Joseph Hammer.

Morphogen

Alan Turing, better known for his work in wartime cryptography and the theory of computing, wrote a paper, The chemical basis of morphogenesis, correctly predicting a chemical mechanism for pattern formation.

Social structure

Other recent work by Margaret Archer (morphogenesis theory), Tom R. Burns and collaborators (actor-system dynamics theory and social rule system theory), and Immanuel Wallerstein (World Systems Theory) provided elaborations and applications of the sociological classics in structural sociology.

Urban morphology

The scientist Christopher Alexander and the mathematician Nikos Salingaros have created a new school of urban morphology based on morphogenesis and emergence.

William McGinnis

He also studies how Hox transcription functions control morphogenesis, and how changes in the Hox proteins, cofactors, and DNA targets affect morphology.
