Parametric models of ontogenetic diversities

Modeling of morphogenesis demonstrates that they form rather wide regions of structural stability and narrow zones of instability in parametric space. Within instability zones, small parameter shifts lead to drastic changes in the morphology of buds. These particular zones are the sources of ontogenetic diversities and represent the reserve for evolutionary variation. A topical problem is to construct models based on universal schemes of negative feedbacks between dynamic components of ontogenesis; moreover, the specificity of ontogenesis should be determined by the values of genetic and epigenetic parameters.
