title: The Impact of Domestication on the Circadian Clock.
abstract: A recent publication shows that, during their domestication and spread from Equatorial South America, circadian rhythms of tomatoes have been modified. The modifications have resulted in tomato plants that are adapted to growing under the long day conditions characteristic of summers at higher latitudes.
