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 …

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 …

Senescence in plants is induced by endogenous physiological changes and exogenous
stresses. In this study, we isolated two alleles of a novel rice (Oryza sativa) mutant, yellow …

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 …

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 …

Leaf senescence is an important biological process during leaf growth and development. In
this study, we isolated a novel rice mutant, early senescence 3 (es3 (t)), from the offspring of …

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 …

Leaf senescence plays an important role in crop developmental processes that dramatically
affect crop yield and grain quality. The genetic regulation of leaf senescence is complex …

Leaf senescence is a highly complex, genetically regulated and well-ordered process with
multiple layers and pathways. Delaying leaf senescence would help increase grain yields in …
