Abstract
Logical consequences of the principle of external coincidence (Bünning hypothesis) are studied by means of mathematical modelling taking into account essential properties of photoreceptor phytochrome and timing mechanism (biological clocks). Results of model analysis are compared to experiments on the short-day plant Perilla ocymoides. It is shown that some remarkable features of the photoperiodical reaction may occur as non-obvious consequences of the known properties of photoreceptor and timing mechanism.
