Aluminium is a limiting factor for crop productivity in acidic soils (pH [≤] 5.5). Since acid soil distribution on Earth cannot adequately explain the differential Al tolerance across the plant kingdom, we investigated photoperiod effects on plant Al tolerance. We observed that with increasing distance from the equator, Al tolerance disappears, suggesting a relationship with the photoperiod. Long-day (LD) species are generally more Al-sensitive than short-day (SD) species, whereas genetic conversion of tomato for SD growth boosts Al tolerance. Reduced Al tolerance correlates with DNA-checkpoint activation under LD. DNA-checkpoint-related genes are under positive selection in Arabidopsis accessions from regions with shorter days, suggesting photoperiod acts as a selective barrier for Al tolerance. Our findings revealed that diel regulation and genetic diversity affect Al tolerance, suggesting that day-length orchestrates Al tolerance. One-Sentence SummaryAluminum is a major constraint for crop yield worldwide. We reveal that photoperiod acts as a barrier for Al tolerance in plants.
