Fitness enhancement based on resonating circadian clocks has recently been demonstrated in cyanobacteria [Ouyang et al. (1998). Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. ;.S.A. 95, 8660}8664]. Thus, the competition between two cyanobacterial strains di!ering by the free-running period (FRP) of their circadian oscillati
