Contents: Rhythm mutants -- Identification of the corresponding genes and inferences about their products -- Manipulation of such genes amd product functions to elucidate not only the neural substrates of behavioral rhythmicities, but also the intracellular mechanisms that comprise biological clocks -- Identification of additional rhythm-related genes in their normal forms, followed by analogous manipulations of them -- Analyses of core clock functions in context of rhythm-related processes that surround such central "pacemaking", that is: environmental inputs to the clock and how its actions are output to regulate revealed rhythms.
