FIGURE 6.

The mutant’s simulations with the FT-GRN Boolean model yield attractors like the observed mutant’s phenotypes. (A) Simulation of single loss of function, or (B) constitutive expression mutants. The basin size of each meristem state (phenotype) in relation to all state space was plotted as a heatmap. Different types of meristems were specified as JVM, AVM, IM, FM, a chimeric inflorescence-floral meristem (IFM), and other chimeric cyclic attractors (Other). Most simulations recovered the phenotypes described in the literature. However, some mutants’ phenotypes were partially recovered (*), and some mutants have not been described yet (#).
