For modelling the growth of shapes. See Details, Tutorials and Download (PC, Mac, Linux, uses Matlab Matlab 30 day free trial and student edition)

GFtbox is an implementation of the Growing Polarised Tissue Framework for understanding and modelling the relationship between gene activity and the growth of shapes such leaves, flowers and animal embryos (PLoS Computational Biology, in press). The GPT-framework was used to capture an understanding of (to model) the growing Snapdragon flower. The Snapdragon model was validated by comparing the results with new mutant flowers.;
