New open source software for identifying candidate genes
Introducing cageminer, an R/Bioconductor package to prioritize candidate genes by integrating GWAS and gene coexpression networks
Simulating red:far red ratio in your model
The best method depends on your goal, need for accuracy, and computing allowance
MARSHAL, a novel tool for modeling root system hydraulics
A new computational tool couples a root architecture model with fast and accurate algorithms of water flow through hydraulic architectures and plant-scale parameter calculations.
How do you combine simplicity and realism in plant models?
Parsimony and biological reality are often seen as antagonistic goals in plant modelling. Hammer and colleagues argue that isn’t always the case, and combining the two approaches could bring benefits to scientists as well as plants.
Modelling molecular-level processes using parametric extension of L-systems
It is now possible to simulate molecular and higher-level spatially explicit stochastic processes and study their behavior in the presence of stochastic perturbations
Scaling photosynthesis from gene to leaf
Scientists combine models to create a powerful multiscale model that can identify key transcription factors regulating leaf photosynthesis.
