Discuss the main factors that control plant development

What will be an ideal response?


Concepts to Consider: The orientation of the preprophase band determines the plane of cell division
and consequently is responsible for such phenomena as the files of cells produced at the root tip. The
orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell wall determines the direction of cell expansion.
Differential gene expression is responsible for differences in plant cell structure and function.
Morphogenesis proceeds through pattern formation which is the result of chemical interactions
between cells as a result of their position.
