Leaf senescence is a complex biological process and defense responses play vital role for
rice development, their molecular mechanisms, however, remain elusive in rice. We herein …

Premature senescence greatly affects the yield production and the grain quality in plants,
although the molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we identified a novel rice …

Leaf senescence, which is the last developmental phase of plant growth, is controlled by
multiple genetic and environmental factors. Leaf yellowing is a visual indicator of …

Isolating and characterizing mutants with altered senescence phenotypes is one of the ways
to understand the molecular basis of leaf aging. Using ethyl methane sulfonate …

Glutamate synthase (GOGAT) is a key enzyme for nitrogen metabolism and ammonium
assimilation in plants. In this study, an early senescence 7 (es7) mutant was identified and …

Premature leaf senescence (PLS), which has a significant impact on yield, is caused by
various underlying mechanisms. Glycosyltransferases, which function in glycosyl transfer …

Leaf senescence is a genetically regulated, highly complex and ordered process. Although it
has been extensively studied, the mechanism of leaf senescence is not well understood. In …

Premature senescence of leaves causes a reduced yield and quality of rice by affecting
plant growth and development. The regulatory mechanisms underlying early leaf …

Premature leaf senescence negatively impacts the grain yield in the important monocot rice
(Oryza sativa L.); to understand the molecular mechanism we carried out a screen for …

Leaves are the main organs in which photosynthates are produced. Leaf senescence
facilitates the translocation of photosynthates and nutrients from source to sink, which is …
