This table indicates the set, growth mode and number of neurogenetic origins for each of the 21 growth layouts. For each set, the determining properties of the spatiotemporal growth trajectory are indicated. Moreover, for each growth layout the total numbers of areas, growth events and neurons are included. Abbreviations and background colours introduced here are used throughout the figures.
