Abstract
En 中文
A new tomato fruit model predicts cell numbers, cell sizes, sugar contents, and fresh weight. Transport of water and saccharides from plant stem to fruit cells is computed following biophysical rules. Saccharide fruit sink is based on sugar metabolism, rates of cell division and expansion, and starch and cell wall dynamics. Osmotic and hydraulic potentials in cells and their vacuoles drive water import at given cell-wall extensibility. The interaction of demand and transport determines saccharide flow and biomass. We incorporated physiological responses to temperature, pruning, and plant shading.
