“…The application of this term implies a recognition of function because ‘meristem’ is from the Greek word ‘merizein’, meaning ‘to divide’. The early published views of the shoot apical meristem were largely observational, aiming to give accurate descriptions of meristems under natural, nonexperimental conditions (Sifton, 1944).…”

The role of the scientist is emphasized, as proposer, receiver and evaluator of ideas about the shoot apical meristem. Models have become increasingly popular over the last 250 years, and we consider their role. They provide valuable grounding for the development of hypotheses, but in addition they have a strong human element and their uptake relies on various degrees of persuasion. The most influential models are probably those that most data support, consolidating them as an insight into reality; but they also work by altering how we see meristems, re‐directing us to influence the data we collect and the questions we consider meaningful.
