Plant responses to photoperiod [PDF]
Photoperiod controls many developmental responses in animals, plants and even fungi. The response to photoperiod has evolved because daylength is a reliable indicator of the time of year, enabling developmental events to be scheduled to coincide with ...

The Molecular Basis of Photoperiodism [PDF]
A recent study has demonstrated that an external coincidence mechanism, based on the endogenous circadian control of a transcription factor expression (CO) and the modulation of CO function by light, constitutes the molecular basis for the regulation of flowering time by photoperiod.

Photoperiodic Programming of the SCN and Its Role in Photoperiodic Output [PDF]
Though the seasonal response of organisms to changing day lengths is a phenomenon that has been scientifically reported for nearly a century, significant questions remain about how photoperiod is encoded and effected neurobiologically. In mammals, early work identified the master circadian clock, the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), as a tentative encoder

Photoperiodism and Diapause in Insects [PDF]
DURING the past five years, work has been in progress at Rothamsted on rearing in the laboratory a number of plant-feeding insects. One of the aims has been to maintain supplies of insects in large numbers throughout the year. This has necessitated a study of the factors affecting diapause, the quiescent phase in which most plant-feeding insect species

Timing of puberty by photoperiod [PDF]
Photoperiod cues play an important role in the timing of puberty in the female lamb. Removal and replacement of photoperiod cues by denervation of the pineal gland and timed melatonin infusions, respectively, indicate that the pathway for transmission of photoperiod information develops well before puberty.

Lighting strategies for morphological and physiological characteristics of horticultural crops often focus on the proper daily light integral (DLI); however, a suitable combination of photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and photoperiod at the same ...

The effect of a 24-hour photoperiod on the survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae [PDF]
The effects of two different continuous photoperiod regimes on survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae were investigated. Each photoperiod regime was tested twice with a different larval cohort

This study was designed to explore the impact of the photoperiod on the gonadal development and somatic growth of Atlantic salmon raised in recirculating aquaculture systems (RASs), with specific focus on the role that microRNA (miR)-155 plays as a ...
