Visualization of Virtual Plants Growth Based on Open L-System

Abstract : Based on the improvement of Open L-system, this paper presents a four-layer model of plant growth visualization. Take Radix Isatidis for example, the paper carries on morphologic model of its base leaves growing period and eco-physiological model about temperature and growth rate. The prototype system design and development are also discussed on the base of this four-layer model. The results show that the four-layer model solves the combination of the plant morphologic model and eco-physiological model, with some reference value and practical significance.
