Computational Molecular Biology 2026, Vol.16, No.2, 129-145 http://bioscipublisher.com/index.php/cmb 142 imagery, creating platforms where temperature-yield modules for tomato become part of a larger cyber-physical production system. Knowledge-based data-driven approaches that couple calibrated process-based models with deep learning show one promising route: process models preserve interpretability and physiological realism, while neural networks and particle filtering correct systematic errors and adapt to new microclimates or management regimes. At the same time, IoT reviews highlight persistent challenges around sensor accuracy, interoperability, and deployment cost, suggesting that future climate-adaptive modeling must explicitly handle data quality, uncertainty propagation, and robust control under extreme events. In this context, next-generation temperature-yield models will need to be both explainable and self-updating, closing the loop between sensing, prediction, and actuation to support resilient, low-carbon greenhouse tomato systems under a changing climate. Acknowledgments I would like to thank the anonymous reviewers for their detailed review of the draft. Their specific feedback helped us correct the logical loopholes in our arguments.
