diel_models

diel_models systematically integrates day-night cycles into plant genome-scale metabolic models, enabling accurate representation of metabolic behavior under diel conditions.

Key Features:

• Diel Cycle Integration: Systematizes and constructs diel models based on non-diel plant genome-scale metabolic models.
• Model Scope: Supports both generic and multi-tissue plant genome-scale metabolic models.
• Modular Architecture: Implements a lightweight, modular package structure with minimal dependencies and Python 3.8+ compatibility.

Scientific Applications:

• Plant Metabolic Modeling: Enables study of metabolic processes and adaptive strategies of plants under 24-hour day-night cycles.
• Light Condition Adaptation Analysis: Facilitates explanation of plant adaptive strategies to different light conditions through diel-aware metabolic simulations.

Methodology:

The package transforms non-diel plant genome-scale metabolic models into diel models through systematic integration of day-night cycle constraints.
