circadian-rhythms
Circadian rhythms are internal biological oscillations that repeat approximately every 24 hours, coordinating cellular and physiological processes in alignment with the day-night cycle. In plants, these rhythms regulate critical functions such as photosynthesis, flowering time, stomatal opening, and stress responses, ensuring each process occurs at the optimal time of day. Understanding plant circadian clocks offers insights into how plants adapt to seasonal changes and environmental conditions, with implications for improving crop productivity and resilience.
