Although circadian biological clocks have been intensively studied over the past four decades, only recently have the tools needed to examine the molecular basis of circadian rhythms become available. Examining the unique model of biological clocks in fish, this book reviews the current state of knowledge in detail and presents the latest contributions to the field. It investigates the location, molecular basis, and mechanism of circadian clocks in fish as well as how they can function even in the absence of environmental cues.
