Instability and fingering of interfaces in growing tissue

For propagation driven by a difference in homeostatic stress, the interface is stable for tissue-specific substrate friction even for very large differences of homeostatic stress; however, it becomes unstable above a critical stress difference when the tissue with the larger homeostatic stress has a higher viscosity.
