Circadian clocks regulate the daily timing of metabolic, physiological, and behavioral activities to adapt organisms to day-night cycles. In the model plant  Arabidopsis thaliana , transcript-translational feedback loops (TTFL) constitute the circadian clock, which is conserved among flowering plants. Arabidopsis TTFL directly regulates key genes in the clock-output pathways, whereas the pathways for clock-output control in other plants is largely unknown. Here, we propose that the transcriptional networks of clock-associated pseudo-response regulators (PRRs) are conserved among flowering plants. Most PRR genes from Arabidopsis, poplar, and rice encode potential transcriptional repressors. The PRR5-target-like gene group includes genes that encode key transcription factors for flowering time regulation, cell elongation, and chloroplast gene expression. The 5′-upstream regions of PRR5-target-like genes from poplar and rice tend to contain G-box-like elements that are potentially recognized by PRRs  in vivo  as has been shown in Arabidopsis. Expression of PRR5-target-like genes from poplar and rice tends to decrease when  PRR s are expressed, possibly suggesting that the transcriptional network of PRRs is evolutionarily conserved in these plants.
