Abstract

The growth of filamentous microorganisms is contributed by tip extension and branching. In order to describe the microscopic process, many models have been considered in the literature. Motivated by these models, we introduce a model of a Parallel Communicating (PC) Grammar System, discuss the branching structures and developmental sequences of microorganisms using this system. Further we compare this PC Grammar System with Apical Growth Pure Context free grammars and subapical deterministic bracketed L-systems.
