Auxin patterns plants, alter the mechanics of cells and deforms tissues: how auxin max stay focused? In a new theoretical work, the group of Karen Alim (TU_Muenchen) shows that tissue-wide mechanical coupling produces focused auxin spots and buffer against noise. We are very happy to have modestly contributed to this work. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjp/s13360-021-01204-6…
