The potential landscape captures pentamerous whorl formation.
A. The angular position of the third primordium as a function of α. B–C. Color-coded growth-potential landscape (top) and the section (bottom) at the angle where the fifth (B) and the sixth (C) primordia arise (white dashed line in the top panel). α = 2.0, Vτ = 6.0, R0 = 20.0, σθ = 0.0, λini = λg = 10.0, and PMP = 0 in A–C.
