De Virtuele Plant Bij de "Virtuele Plant" draait het allemaal om de interpretatie van de adaptatie van planten aan verschillende stressfactoren die de opbrengst en de productiviteit van de plant beïnvloeden. Projecten (in English) Modeling an ecological network of plant-insect dynamics in the context of volatile plant metabolite profiles Plants are at the basis of most terrestrial food webs and they are exposed to a multitude of insect species at different trophic levels. Plants appear... Modelling flowering time regulatory networks Proper regulation of flowering time is essential for plant adaptation to the environment and to ensure optimal yield. A key environmental signal that... Modelling rice adaptation to drought stress Drought is a complex stress for crops. They react with changes in photosynthesis, morphology (e.g. root size and leaf thickness) and other crop... Modeling of multicellular feedback loops in plant stem cells Stem cells are crucial to growth and architecture of plants. Our group has discovered a major gene regulatory network involved in the positioning and... Systems biology of sink strength Knowledge and understanding of plant physiology and genetics is rapidly moving forward. However integration of these advances with the extensive... Finding the Holy Grail in production ecology Society has expressed strong interest in a bio-based economy. This requires high-yielding crops that efficiently use nutrients and water and are...
