As sessile organisms, plants must respond constantly to ever-changing environments to complete their life cycle; this includes the transition from vegetative growth to reproductive development. This process is mediated by photoperiodic response to sensing the length of night or day through circadian regulation of light-signaling molecules, such as phytochromes, to measure the length of night to initiate flowering. Flowering time is the most important trait to optimize crop performance in adaptive regions. In this review, we focus on interplays between circadian and light signaling pathways that allow plants to optimize timing for flowering and seed production in Arabidopsis, rice, soybean, and cotton. Many crops are polyploids and domesticated under natural selection and breeding. In response to adaptation and polyploidization, circadian and flowering pathway genes are epigenetically reprogrammed. Understanding the genetic and epigenetic bases for photoperiodic flowering will help improve crop yield and resilience in response to climate change. A review synthesizes interplays between photoperiodism and circadian regulation of the vegetative to reproductive transition in Arabidopsis and crops in responses to changing day lengths that ensures optimal timing for flowering and seed production.
