Plant biology has had longstanding successes from applying mathematical models to plant systems. Of the >160 models that have been developed to date, a closer study is made of crop models and more recent plant models. The latter focus on hormone response networks, metabolism, circadian clock, biomechanics of growth and new organ development. The multicellular and multiscale models have provided important and novel insights into the regulation of hormone distribution, tissue development and environmental sensing. Finally, the challenges faced when establishing multidisciplinary teams are introduced along with successful management strategies and techniques to overcome them.
将数学模型应用于植物系统，植物生物学在这方面早就取得了成功。在迄今为止已开发的160多种模型中，本文对作物模型和最新的植物模型进行了更深入的研究。后者侧重于激素反应网络、新陈代谢、生物钟、生长生物力学和新器官发育。多细胞和多尺度模型为激素分布调节、组织发育和环境感知提供了重要且新颖的见解。最后，介绍了组建多学科团队时面临的挑战以及成功的管理策略和克服这些挑战的技巧。
