MARSHAL, a novel tool for modeling root system hydraulics
A new computational tool couples a root architecture model with fast and accurate algorithms of water flow through hydraulic architectures and plant-scale parameter calculations.
Plant Science from Cell Biology to Ecosystems

Parsimony and biological reality are often seen as antagonistic goals in plant modelling. Hammer and colleagues argue that isn’t always the case, and combining the two approaches could bring benefits to scientists as well as plants.
It is now possible to simulate molecular and higher-level spatially explicit stochastic processes and study their behavior in the presence of stochastic perturbations
This is what they said:
Scientists combine models to create a powerful multiscale model that can identify key transcription factors regulating leaf photosynthesis.
A new model is able to predict the effect of training systems on grapevine gas-exchange dynamics under drought.
Scientists unravel the mysteries of the iron deficiency-induced transcriptional response in plants using a dynamic model.
Reproductive failure in maize has long been studied in plant science. Now, for the first time, it has been quantitatively synthesized.
A new model allows researchers to understand the consequences of different carbon allocation strategies for plant growth.
Tracking the production and accumulation of FLOWERING LOCUS T improves prediction of flowering time.
A new tool links models of different languages and scales to create entire plants, fields, or regions in silico.
