Abstract

    At present models do not exist which can predict xylem production in relation to environmental conditions. The accurcacy and distribution of measurements over the tree which are required for the development of such models is discussed.

    Considerable emhpasis is placed on the need to model xylem production at the thissue level and to predict cell production, enlargement and wall thickening. The control of these processes through carbohydrate supply and hormonal mechanisms is discussed in relation to how they might be modelled mathematically.
