Distinct types of tissue dynamics during posterior body morphogenesis. (a–c), Tissue pressure and velocity field associated to morphogenetic flows for the three limiting regimes shown in Fig. 2a, namely isotropic expansion (IE; a), intermediate regime (IR; b) and unidirectional elongation (UE (nv); c). The parameter values for each of these cases are those indicated in Fig. 2a for each regime. The pressure and velocity fields during unidirectional tissue elongation are qualitatively different from those obtained during isotropic expansion and in the intermediate regime. The left column shows the input fields of the simulations, namely the tissue viscosity, 𝜇(𝑥), and the addition of new tissue material, Q(x, y), at the same time point as the pressure and velocity fields. |
