The programming language XL ('eXtended L-system language') is an extension of Java,
which supports the specification and execution of relational growth grammars, a variant of …

We present a method for generating a biochemical reaction network from a description of the
interactions of components of biomolecules. The interactions are specified in the form of …

In this paper, we present PlantGL, an open-source graphic toolkit for the creation, simulation
and analysis of 3D virtual plants. This C++ geometric library is embedded in the Python …

Increasing biological knowledge requires more and more elaborate methods to translate the
knowledge into executable model descriptions, and increasing computational power allows …

A multiscaled ecophysiological model of barley (Hordeum vulgare) development is
presented here.• The model is based on the new formalism of relational growth grammars …

The concept of relational growth grammars (RGG) is a recent effort to address the needs of
functional-structural plant modelling. The programming language XL is the first language …

Structurally dynamic cellular automata (abbreviated, SDCA) are a generalized class of CA in
which the topological structure of the (usually quiescent) underlying lattice is dynamically …

Abstract Background and Aims Functional–structural plant models (FSPM) constitute a
paradigm in plant modelling that combines 3D structural and graphical modelling with the …

Relational growth grammars (RGG) area graph rewriting formalism which extends the
notations and semantics of Lindenmayer systems and which allows the specification of …

In Dutch greenhouse horticulture, use of additional assimilation light in the form of lamps
plays an important role. So far, little is known about the effect of lamp positions, types, and …
