- Turing proposed a model wherein two homogeneously distributed substances (P and S) interact to produce stable patterns during morphogenesis. These patterns represent regional differences in the concentrations of the two substances. Their interactions would produce an ordered structure out of random chaos.

Nov 8, 2021 · Picture the spreading of a coloured dye in water for example. Turing showed that with two or more interacting chemical species, diffusion could instead induce the spontaneous creation of spatial patterns.
Such patterns have come to be known as Turing patterns. For example, it has been postulated that the protein VEGFC can form Turing patterns to govern the formation of lymphatic vessels in the zebrafish embryo.
Scientists have long been intrigued by a mechanism first predicted by Alan Turing that leads to self-organizing chemical patterns. Now they have a guide to creating them experimentally.

Nov 8, 2021 · Chemistry in particular has made significant contributions to the study of Turing-type morphogenesis, providing multiple reproducible experimental methods to both predict and study new behaviours and dynamics generated in reaction–diffusion systems.

Turing in an effort to provide a chemical basis for biological structures and patterns such as those on animal coats. Turing's work has had considerable influence on theoretical developments in pattern formation. His mechanism has been utilized to describe pattern formation in semiconductor physics [5,
The Turing pattern is a concept introduced by English mathematician Alan Turing in a 1952 paper titled "The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis" which describes how patterns in nature, such as stripes and spots, can arise naturally and autonomously from a homogeneous, uniform state.
