Growth units construction in trees: A stochastic approach
Acta Biotheoretica 39 (3-4) (1991)
| Abstract | Trees architectural study shows gradients in the meristematic activity. This activity is described by the number of internodes per growth unit, which is considered as the output of a dynamic random process. Several species were observed, which led us to propose and then estimate some mathematical models. Computing the functioning of a tree in a given environment therefore involves finding the probability function of the meristems and following the evolution of the parameters of this law along the botanical gradients (order, trend, acrotony) within its architecture. | |||||||||
