Architecture Of Tropical Plants
Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1987This articie deals with an apparent paradox, a reductionist approach that allows the seeming chaos of forest canopies to be seen as a sequence of simpler processes but that retains an appreciation for holistic aspects of plant construction. Tropical forests offer the biggest challenge to such an approach because the chaos is acute.

The Plant Architecture of Rice (Oryza sativa)
Plant Molecular Biology, 2005Plant architecture, a collection of the important agronomic traits that determine grain production in rice, is mainly affected by factors including tillering, plant height and panicle morphology. Recently, significant progress has been made in isolating and collecting of mutants that are defective in rice plant architecture.

Applications of Plant Architecture Modelling [PDF]
This chapter highlights the significance of plant architecture across various plant-related disciplines, with a focus on the AMAP and GreenLab models. It introduces the use of three-dimensional (3D) plant mock-ups for computer graphics in landscaping and urban planning, as well as their utility in remote sensing for assessing plant stand health and ...

Branching patterns: the simulation of plant architecture
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1979Abstract This article describes a basis for the simulation of plant growth in “architectural” terms. Architecture is used here in a design rather than mechanical sense. The form of the plant is governed by the organized pattern of its branching. A plant is considered to be built up of a series of shoot-units.

1989
According to the rules introduced in the previous chapter the turtle interprets a character string as a sequence of line segments, connected “head to tail” with each other. Depending on the segment lengths and the angles between them, the resulting line self-intersecting or not, can be more or less convoluted, with some segments drawn many times and ...

This chapter provides an overview of the basic anatomy and cell biology of plants, from the macroscopic structure of organs and tissues to the microscopic ultrastructure of cellular organelles. It shows how plants carry out similar physiological and biochemical processes, despite their great diversity in form and size.

Protein Kinases in Shaping Plant Architecture
Current Protein and Peptide Science, 2018Plant architecture, the three-dimensional organization of the plant body, includes the branching pattern and the size, shape, and position of organs. Plant architecture is genetically controlled and is influenced by environmental conditions. The regulations occur at most of the stages from the first division of the fertilized eggs to the final ...

EFFECT OF SALINITY ON TOMATO PLANT ARCHITECTURE
Acta Horticulturae, 2008It is well known that dry weight and fruit production of tomato plants are sharply affected by salinity in the root environment. Moreover, several studies have focussed on the physiological consequences of salinity. However, little information is available dealing with the effect of salinity on the plant architecture, not only on final plant height ...

Botanical Concepts on the Organization of Plant Architectures [PDF]
The aim is to provide an understanding of the botanical elements (and their combinations) involved in plant architecture and rules for simulating and modeling plant growth and development (the botanical concepts used in the GreenLab model). The structure of a plant is an intricate organization shaped by genetics, modulated by the environment, and ...

The Molecular Architecture of Plant Genes and Their Regulation
1989Publisher Summary Plant gene expression is a highly regulated activity that is dependant upon a multitude of factors. One element of the regulation of gene expression is the primary structure of the gene itself. Primary structure, composed of the linear sequence elements of the DNA and RNA, may be responsible for the binding of various cellular ...
