Helical growth during the phototropic response, avoidance response, and in stiff mutants of Phycomyces blakesleeanus

Abstract The sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus have been used as a model system to study sensory transduction, helical growth, and to establish global biophysical equations for expansive growth of walled cells. More recently, local statistical biophysical models of the cell wall are being...
