the proposal that mechanical stress from uneven growth feeds back on cell proliferation, evening out growth and stopping it at the right size.

In developmental biology, mechanical feedback model of growth control refers to the proposal that mechanical stress from uneven growth feeds back on cell proliferation, evening out growth and stopping it at the right size. This meaning comes from Shraiman (2005) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1]
