Abstract: Circadian oscillations and light levels both affect plant growth; Maloof and colleagues now describe one mechanism by which the two pathways converge. Coordination between circadian control of transcription of two bHLH genes and light-dependent regulation of their proteins accounts for observed diurnal growth rhythms of Arabidopsis seedlings, providing an example of how coincidence between external and internal cues regulates function.
