The organization of the shoot apex

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Handbuch der Pflanzenphysiologie / Encyclopedia of Plant Physiology ((532,volume 15))

Abstract

In another chapter of this volume1 some of the more general aspects of morphogenesis at the shoot apical meristem have been considered. Here the aim is to examine what is meant by apical organization2, i.e. the constructional and functional unity which the apex exhibits throughout the development of the plant, and to see how the apex, during its metabolism and growth, gives rise to organs of characteristic size, position and symmetry and to the tissue pattern within.
