The ability of plants and other organisms to show endogenous circadian rhythms and to adapt to daily and photoperiodic events is often associated with a central molecular clock ([Bunning, 1973][1]; [Edmunds, 1988][2]). Using the oscillatory nitrate reductase (NR) system as an example, we argue that
