Since the discovery of circadian rhythms in cyanobacteria in the
late 1980s, the field has exploded with new information. The
cyanobacterial model system for studying circadian rhythms,
"Synechococcus elongatus," has allowed a detailed genetic
dissection of the bacterial clock due to the methods currently
available in molecular, structural, and evolutionary biology.
This book addresses multiple aspects of bacterial circadian
programs: the history and background of the cyanobacteria and
circadian rhythms in microorganisms, the molecular basis,
structure, and evolution of the circadian clock, entrainment of the
oscillator with the environment and the control of downstream
processes by the clock, the demonstration of adaptive significance
and the prokaryotic clock s remarkable stability, and mathematical
and synthetic oscillator models for clock function.
Experts in the field provide a timely and comprehensive review
and a stepping-stone for future work on this amazing group of
microorganisms and timing."
