Sugars Inform the Circadian Clock How to Shape Rice Shoots via the Strigolactone Pathway
Blog, Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefCircadian clocks act as universal timekeepers to harmonize internal processes with external day-night rhythms. Genetic feedback loops gear these inner clocks by approximating time in response to dawn-dusk cycles. In plants, development, growth, hormone action, metabolism and other downstream events are…
