  • Genes regulating circadian clock functional and photoperiodism
    Patent number: 7053182
    Abstract: Nucleic acid molecules that encode plant proteins involved in photoperiodism and circadian rhythms are disclosed. These molecules may be introduced into plants in order to alter the photoperiodic and/or circadian clock-based gene expression of the plants.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 18, 2005
    Date of Patent: May 30, 2006
    Assignee: State of Oregon Acting by and through the State Board of Higher Education on behalf of the University of Oregon
