Lindenmayer systems are used to model biological development and plant growth
Lindenmayer systems are widely and successfully used in computational biology to model and simulate plant growth, branching patterns, and developmental structures.
The retrieved papers consistently show that Lindenmayer (L) systems are utilized to model plant growth, development, and biological patterns such as cell division in diatoms. Papers [1], [6], and [10] specifically model plant growth (such as soybeans), and paper [9] models diatom properties, directly supporting the claim. No papers contradict the claim.

Paper [1] proposes an animating system for plant growth using the Lindenmayer (L) system to model soybean development realistically.
