Background and Aims Because functional¿structural plant models (FSPMs) take plant architecture explicitly into consideration, they constitute a promising approach for unravelling plant¿plant interactions in complex canopies. However, existing FSPMs mainly address competition for light. The aim of the present work was to develop a comprehensive FSPM accounting for the interactions between plant ...
