Construction and Visualization of Wheat Roots Model Based on Artificial Life

摘要

In the paper, two important virtual plantmodeling methods, dual-scale automata and L-system, areintroduced firstly. According to structure characteristics ofwheat root, the morphological structure model of wheat rootis then constructed using combination of dual-scaleautomaton and L system. In view of the environment factorsthat affect growth of wheat roots, we construct the growthrestricted model of wheat roots, and combine it withmorphological structure model. The dynamic growthsimulation of wheat root is obtained.
