Works related to Comparative Functional Architectonics, a methodology to infer organismic properties up from molecular and celular-level constituents. 

The works do not form a single research field. Instead, each new work is rather an inductive expansion of the previous work.

- Examples of work at the level of molecular components (Level 1): 

  1. Vacuolar convolution: possible mechanisms and role of phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (2017) (analyzed objects—plants, fungi)
  2. How do Plants Keep their Functional Integrity? (2018) (analyzed objects—plants)

- Level-2 work (expansion of How do Plants Keep their Functional Integrity?):

       3. The two roles of Ca2+ signaling (2020) (analyzed objects—plants, animals)

- The method itself:

       4. Reconstructing emergent biological phenomena through comparative functional architectonics (2023), bit.ly/44QLFvv (for biological objects in general)

- Level-3 work (a further inductive expansion of the works presented above, following the rules presented in 4.):

       5. The general theory of development (forthcoming)
