Leaf senescence is the last stage of leaf development and is an orderly biological process
accompanied by degradation of macromolecules and nutrient recycling, which contributes to …

Petals and leaves share common evolutionary origins but perform very different functions.
However, few studies have compared leaf and petal senescence within the same species …

Senescence as a whole plant phenomenon including the loss of generative capacity in
vegetative and reproductive growth, physiological decline, mineral uptake and distribution …

Both demographic and physiological senescence have been demonstrated to occur in
various organisms. However, indeterminate growers, such as some animals and most …

Senescence processes can influence many important agricultural traits; however, our
knowledge concerning regulatory mechanisms controlling senescence is still limited. Free …

The phenomena of aging and senescence in plants are discussed in the broader context of
turnover in biological systems. The occurrence of programmed lethal developments within …

Leaf senescence is a complex developmental phase that involves both degenerative and
nutrient recycling processes. It is characterized by loss of chlorophyll and the degradation of …

Leaf senescence is the final developmental stage of a leaf. The progression of barley
primary leaf senescence was followed by measuring the senescence‐specific decrease in …

The differential display technique was used to generate cDNA probes in order to identify
mRNAs that are up‐regulated during senescence of Arabidopsis leaves. Three mRNAs …

Leaf senescence is an important biological process that contributes to grain yield in crops.
To study the molecular mechanisms underlying natural leaf senescence, we harvested three …
