Plant Callus Tissue Growth
callus proliferation on hydrogel vascular network When tissue start to merge and occupy hydrogel network irregularly, the geometry of the network and local horemone availability will have a vital influence on the final appearance of the tissue construct.
Fig. 1
As hydrogel degrades, the developent of natural ECM (extra cellular matrix) is induced from plant cells. The hydrogel network which was a synthetic EMC will be replaced by natural EMC. Thus the geometry of tissue construct is guided by that of the hydrogel. Regulation of unnatural morphology from plant tissue offers architects engeneering methodology to control the size and shape of the material units.

callus development without differentiation
Differentiation of callus tissue is regulated by fluid running through the hydrgogel tube. Fig. 3
