Assays

Biomass (fresh mass, dry mass), leaf numbers, leaf area, gas exchange and 12 metabolites in Col0 (WT), prr7prr9, and pgm at days 29 and 35, presented in the preprint/publication, with most data also for Col and lhycca1 at days 21/22/23, not analysed further.

We suggest that the lower carbon assimilation rate measured in lhycca1 (see gas exchange data) might allow a calibirated simulation in the FMv2 model in future to incorporate the indirect effects of nightly carbon starvation in this genotype ...

Biomass (fresh mass, dry mass), leaf numbers, leaf area, gas exchange and 12 metabolites in Col0 (WT), prr7prr9, and lsf1 (presented in the preprint/paper) and pgm (not analysed further).

Metabolite analysis in clock mutants: Col-0 parent and mutants gi-201, toc1-101 and prr7prr9; WS parent and lhy/cca1 double mutant. Plants grown in Golm and harvested at End of Day and End of Night, , assays 22 major metabolites. More detail on TiMet wiki if required. Heteroscedastic t-tests to highlight most significant changes, without multiple-testing correction.

Biomass, leaf number and metabolites in Col0 (WT), prr7, prr7prr9, and lsf1. Metabolite data from plants after 28 days of growth were analysed most (27 days 'end of night', 28 days 'end of day' and 'end of night'). The data file also includes data from 21 days of growth ('end of day' and 'end of night'), which is useful for comparison to early-flowering plants not tested here, such as the lhycca1 double mutant, that flower before 28 days, altering their physiology.

Data for Figure 4, from the prior publication of Sulpice et al. Mol. Plant 2014: Biomass, net growth and starch levels at end of day and end of night, under light:dark cycles of 4:20, 6:18, 8:16, 12:12 and 18:6 hours.
