Expression of circadian clock genes and diurnal oscillations of key physiological events in response to AsV and AsIII in soybean plants

• Arsenic affected the expression profile of key clock genes in soybean plants. • Arsenic-response physiological events showed diurnal oscillations. • Differences between leaves and roots suggests the existence of organ-specific clocks. • Effects of arsenic were dependent on its chemical form, plant...

• Arsenic affected the expression profile of key clock genes in soybean plants. • Arsenic-response physiological events showed diurnal oscillations. • Differences between leaves and roots suggests the existence of organ-specific clocks. • Effects of arsenic were dependent on its chemical form, plant organ and time of the day. • Putative circadian regulation of arsenic response could display a role in tolerance.
