Abstract excerpt
Phytochrome B (phyB) is a major phytochrome active in light-grown plants. The circadian clock controls the expression of the PHYB gene. We have used the luciferase reporter gene (LUC) to monitor the rhythmic expression of PHYB in photoreceptor and clock-associated mutant backgrounds. Surprisingly, we found that PHYB and CAB expression have different free-running periods, indicating that separate circadian clocks...
