Many organisms exhibit daily rhythms in physiology or behaviour. These are called circadian rhythms and are generated by an internal molecular "clock" that becomes synchronized with the daily light/dark cycle.
In plants, the clock is needed to ensure that flowering occurs at the appropriate time.This project examines the role of several genes in maintaining the plant circadian clock.
