During and after the domestication of crops from ancestral wild plants, humans selected
cultivars that could change their flowering time in response to seasonal daylength …

During plant domestication and improvement, farmers select for alleles present in wild
species that improve performance in new selective environments associated with cultivation …

Photoperiods integrate with the circadian clock to coordinate gene expression rhythms and
thus ensure plant fitness to the environment. Genome-wide characterization and comparison …

Diel changes in the environment are perceived by the circadian clock which transmits
temporal information throughout the plant cell to synchronize daily and seasonal …

Background The daily cycling of plant physiological processes is speculated to arise from
the coordinated rhythms of gene expression. However, the dynamics of diurnal 3D genome …

Rhythmic oscillation of biological processes helps organisms adapt their physiological
responses to the most appropriate time of the day. Chromatin remodeling has been …

Cellular circadian clocks represent ancient anticipatory systems which co‐evolved with the
first cells to safeguard their survival. Cyanobacteria represent one of the most ancient cells …

Our modern understanding of diel cell regulation in plants stems from foundational work in
the late 1990s that analysed the dynamics of selected genes and mutants in Arabidopsis …

Plant roots are generally hidden from our sight, growing and living underground in alliances
with symbiotic fungi. In order to find enough water and critical mineral nutrients, they explore …

How do plants measure daylength? Why do humans go to sleep at night? Why do roosters
“sing” at the same time every day? The answer to these questions lies in the existence of a …
