Shape Limit in Triangular Spiral Tilings

TL;DR: In this article, the divergence angle of the genetic spiral is given as a quadratic irrational and the limit set of the shape parameters of triangular tiles, as the parastichy numbers tend to in nity, is a finite set.

Vascular phyllotaxis transition and an evolutionary mechanism of phyllotaxis

TL;DR: It is shown that continuous changes of the trace length induce transitions between the fractional or- ders in the vascular structure, which suggests an evolutionary mechanism for the phenomenon of phyllotaxis.

Epidermis: Algorithmic Design Based on Biomimetic Morphology

TL;DR: The educational approach and methodology of an introductory algorithmic design workshop which employed biomimetic morphological references was described which aimed to address the challenges of complex parametric geometry employing new digital techniques while studying the underlying algorithmic logic of natural systems.

Evolution of meiosis timing during floral development

TL;DR: Findings show that either the durations before and after microsporocyte meiosis are regulated by the same exogenous process, or one duration determines the other, and imply that the underlying developmental processes have evolved in a limited number of ways among flowering plants.
