Just out: 🌾🫘☀️ A functional-structural plant model for climbing bean: Simulating light capture in maize/bean polycultures by Rik Rutjens @jochemevers.bsky.social Leah Band, Matthew Jones @MarkusOwenMMB #FSPM doi.org/pwns

Please share: Two PhD positions in Plant Photobiology in our lab @w-u-r.bsky.social in Wageningen University, the Netherlands: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p... www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

Another PhD position has opened up: we're looking for a plant modeller, to work on plant stress responses across species using functional-structural plant (FSP) modelling. Experience in modelling and/or programming will be essential. For more details and to apply, see: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

NEW! The Virtual Plant Laboratory: a modern plant modeling framework in Julia from Alejandro Morales, David Kottelenberg, Ana Ernst, Rémi Vezy, and @jochemevers.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/insi... #PlantScience #FSPM

We have opened up a PhD position on crop growth in agrivoltaics: systems that combine crops with solar panels. Research questions to be addressed deal with plant functioning of various crop species in a range of different agrivoltaic systems. For details and to apply, see: www.wur.nl/en/vacancy/p...

Mixed crop systems are really cool. They provide opportunities to improve land use efficiency, but also give great opportunities to learn how plants respond plastically to local conditions, which may vary quite a bit in mixed crops. Interested in our view? See: www.nature.com/articles/s44...
