We previously found in 1D simulations (blue) that the #positional #error of #Dpp increases as the pouch of the #Drosophila #wingdisc expands over time.
Now, with a #tissue #width of 10 cells, the positional error is substantially reduced and remains below 1 cell diameter (red)

The #positional #error of a #morphogen #gradient significantly decreases as the patterned #tissue widens. It can drop from above one #cell diameter to below half a cell diameter, before saturating at a #tissue width beyond about 10 cells.
