A Suite of Photoreceptors Entrains the Plant Circadian Clock

Andrew J. Millar

Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, United Kingdom

Circadian rhythms in plants are relatively robust, as they are maintained both in constant light of high fluence rates and in darkness. Plant circadian clocks exhibit the expected modes of photoentrainment, including period modulation by ambient light and phase resetting by brief light pulses. Several of the phytochrome and cryptochrome photoreceptors responsible have been studied in detail. This review concentrates on the resulting patterns of entrainment and on the multiple proposed mechanisms of light input to the circadian oscillator components.

Key Words: circadian rhythms • biological clocks • Arabidopsis thaliana • light regulation • phytochrome • cryptochrome
