-Availability of sugar is calculated by querying ''as'' of the nearest ''Leaf'' before deciding on fruit formation.+Availability of sugar is calculated by querying ''as'' of the nearest ''Leaf'' before deciding on fruit formation. This query uses two ''minDescendants'' edges, first down to the next lower Node module, then up to the attached Leaf.
