Senescence is a complex, highly regulated, developmental phase in the life of a leaf that
results in the co-ordinated degradation of macromolecules and the subsequent mobilization …

Senescence is the last stage of leaf development and one type of programmed cell death
that occurs in plants. The relationships among senescence programs that are induced by a …

Leaf senescence is the final stage of leaf development. In forests of deciduous trees, the
autumn colors that develop during leaf senescence are of great aesthetic value. This …

Leaf senescence is a hiphly‐controlled sequence of events comprising the final stage of
development. Cells remain viable during the process and new gene expression is required …

Natural leaf senescence proceeds through an orderly program of events referred to,
generally, as the 'senescence syndrome'. Leaf senescence consists of primarily, but not …

Background: In plants, the final stage of organ development is termed senescence. This is a
deterioration process that leads to the decay of tissues and organs, and that, in the case of …

Two cDNA libraries were prepared, one from leaves of a field-grown aspen (Populus
tremula) tree, harvested just before any visible sign of leaf senescence in the autumn, and …

What controls the length of life is one of the fundamental biological questions that has been
puzzling scientists for centuries. Plants have many life-forms and differ greatly in the …

The cloning of genes induced during leaf senescence and the study of their modes of
regulation conducted in the past two years have revealed some of the molecular …

A subtractive hybridisation technique was developed to clone cDNAs representing genes
that showed enhanced expression during leaf senescence in Brassica napus. A number of …
