Deciphering mango tree asynchronisms using Markov tree and probabilistic graphical models

Abstract
Tree development is often characterised by complex dependencies between growth units (GUs) deriving from a given mother GU. We introduce a new methodology to identify such dependencies with parsimonious statistical models. The proposed approach is illustrated on mango tree, a tropical species with a particularly complex timing of development. We focus especially on asynchronism between sister GUs within tree architecture.
