Photometric observations of A-F stars in the uvbyβ system have been performed in order to detect γ Doradus variables in open clusters of different ages. In the clusters Praesepe and α Per, several stars show some type of variability but only three of them, KW370 (Praesepe) and HE104 and HE876 (α Per), can be classified as γ Doradus-type pulsators.
