Functional-Structural Plant Modelling in Crop Production

This book describes the philosophy of functional-structural plant modelling and several tools for making FSPMs; it outlines methods for measuring essential parameters, including those pertaining to plant structure. As FSPMs offer new opportunities to model sink–source interactions, the physiological theory and modelling approaches regarding partitioning of carbon are given specific attention.

The book is for anyone interested in innovative approaches to plant and crop modelling.
