AI Article Synopsis
- The circadian clock in plants regulates various processes, helping them adapt to daily environmental changes and improving their fitness.
- Two recent studies reveal intricate interactions between this clock and the iron status in chloroplasts.
- These findings enhance our understanding of how iron influences the length of the circadian period in plants.
Article Abstract
EMBO J (2013) 32: 511–523 doi:; DOI: 10.1038/emboj.2012.330; published online December 14 2012 In plants, the circadian clock is known to regulate a wide variety of processes and it is clear that the clock-conferred ability of plants to anticipate daily changes in environmental conditions confers significant fitness advantages. Two new studies highlight complex reciprocal interactions between the clock and chloroplast iron status and provide significant new insight into the role of iron in control of circadian period length.
