What is it that determines the shape of a plant? In this lecture we explore the basics of morphogenesis in plant model systems, observing the conduct of the molecules that govern cell activity. We shall also see how knowledge of the basics of morphogenesis in plants can be used from a biotechnological viewpoint to enable the growth of species that can be cultivated in a constantly changing world.

He uses different plant model systems to explore the morphogenesis of plants.
