ABSTRACT:
different photoperiods under 100 M-5mol photons m-2 s-1 at 20 M-0C.
In the first experiment plants grown under short day conditions 8L/16D (8 h light / 16 h dark) for 4 weeks were compared with plants
grown under long day (16L/8D) for 3 weeks.
In the second experiment plants grown under 12L/12D
for 2 weeks were compared with plants grown first 2 weeks under
12L/12D and then two days under short day (8L/16D) conditions.
ORGANISM(S): Arabidopsis thaliana

Plants synchronize their cellular and physiological functions according to the photoperiod (the length of the light period) in the cycle of 24 h. Photoperiod adjusts several traits in the plant life cycle, including flowering and senescence in annuals and seasonal growth cessation in perennials. Photoperiodic development is controlled by the coordinated action of photoreceptors and the circadian clock. During the past 10 years, remarkable progress has been made in understanding the molecular mec ...[more]
