....lengths and branching angles, probability of branching, or correlation between bud position on a branch and its developmental fate. Statistical descriptions of this nature are widely reported in the botanical literature and provide essential input for some modeling methods (for instance, see [7, 53,18,106,130]) Physiological mechanisms responsible for the control of developmental processes are known or have been postulated, but it is convenient to capture their average outcome rather than the details of operation in models constructed at a high level of abstraction. For example, several plausible ....
....shoots. The rhizome segments (internodes) have a finite life span, and rot progressively from the oldest end, thus dividing the original plantinto independent organisms. A model of the propagation of rhizomes in Alpinia specioza,aplantofthe ginger family, was proposed by Bell, Roberts, and Smith [7]. A simulation carried out using an L system reimplementation of this model is shown in Figure 6.4. All rhizome segments are assumed to have the same length. Each year (one derivation step in the simulation) an apex produces one or two daughter segments. The decision mechanism is expressed using ....

....which may give rise to further spacers and ramets. Their gradual death, after a certain amount of time, causes gradual separation of the whole structure (the clone) into independent parts. Following the surface of the soil, clonal plants can be captured using models operating in two dimensions [5], and in that respect resemble Terminalia tiers. We propose a model of a hypothetical plant that responds to favorable environmental conditions (high local intensity of light) by more extensive branching and reduced size of leaves (allowing for more dense packing of ramets) It has been inspired ....
