The circadian clock controls temporal and spatial patterns of floral development in sunflower
eLife, 2023 Biological rhythms are ubiquitous. They can be generated by circadian oscillators, which produce daily rhythms in physiology and behavior, as well as by developmental oscillators such as the segmentation clock, which periodically produces modular ...
