Molecular Approach to the Nyctinastic Movement of the Plant Controlled by a Biological Clock
Most leguminous plants close their leaves in the evening, as if to sleep, and open them early in the morning. This circadian rhythm is known to be controlled by the biological clock of such plants. Extensive studies on other nyctinastic plants led to the isolation of a variety of leaf-closing and le...
