Simulating red:far red ratio in your model
The best method depends on your goal, need for accuracy, and computing allowance
Simulación de la interceptación de la luz en los manglares
La reconstrucción en 3D de la filotaxis de los manglares a base de plantas digitalizadas arroja datos novedosos.
Two decades of “virtual” plant simulations: what’s next?
The FSPM approach has demonstrated considerable progress, but has yet to reach its full potential in terms of integration and heuristic knowledge production.

Modelling Three-Dimensional Leaf Shape Variation
L-Cucumber’s leaf prototype mimics leaf shape of stressed plants.
How Important Is Leaf Realism in Functional-Structural Plant Modelling?
Making a realistic plant in a computer model is possible, but is it necessary. All the computations generating the plant slow down the speed of any simulation. As a result it’s common to use simple geometric shapes for...

The race between wheat and Zymoseptoria tritici epidemics
Robert et al. explore how canopy growth, spatial organization, and leaf senescence impact epidemics of wheat Septoria tritici blotch (STB) caused by Zymoseptoria tritici. Strikingly, the timing of leaf senescence is one...

Designing oil palm architectural ideotypes for optimized light interception
Enhancement of light harvesting in annual crops has successfully led to yield increase and has been achieved by selecting plants with optimal canopy architecture for specific agronomic practices. In this simulation...
Towards turgor-driven growth in FSPs
In many scenarios, water availability plays a determinant role in plant growth. Current functional-structural plant models (FSPs) mainly focus on plant-carbon relations and largely disregard the importance of plant...
Towards a model for cut-rose
The production system of cut-rose (Rosa × hybrida) involves a complex combination of plant material, management practice and environment. Using XL programming, Buck-Sorlin et al. present a 3-D structural–functional...
Modelling seagrass growth and development
Transplanting seagrasses can help restore ecologically important and threatened marine ecosystems. Based on the L-system formalism, Renton et al. present a functional–structural plant model of seagrass growth that...
Assessing uncertainty in functional–structural models
Functional–structural plant models always have uncertainty concerned with selection of model components, with the number of outputs simulated and with the quality of data used in assessment. Ford and Kennedy apply a...
