Core circadian clock genes control molecular and behavioral circatidal rhythms in Parhyale hawaiensis

Summary Marine organisms exhibit 12.4-hour rhythms of gene expression, physiology and behavior synchronized by tidal cues. The mechanism underlying these circatidal rhythms, and its overlap with the circadian clockwork, has remained elusive. However, recent studies showed that the core circadian gene BMAL1 sustains cir...
