Leaf senescence, the last stage of leaf development, is a type of postmitotic senescence and
is characterized by the functional transition from nutrient assimilation to nutrient …

ER-phagy (reticulophagy) defines the degradation of portions of the endoplasmic reticulum
(ER) within lysosomes or vacuoles. It is part of the self-digestion (ie, autophagic) programs …

Plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to recycle intracellular constituents, which
are essential for developmental and metabolic transitions; for efficient nutrient reuse; and for …

Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process cells use to maintain their homeostasis
by degrading misfolded, damaged and excessive proteins, nonfunctional organelles, foreign …

In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy.
Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered …

Autophagy has burgeoned rapidly as a field of study because of its evolutionary
conservation, the diversity of intracellular cargoes degraded and recycled by this machinery …

Eukaryotic cells adequately control the mass and functions of organelles in various
situations. Autophagy, an intracellular degradation system, largely contributes to this …

As a result of climate changes, land use and agriculture have to adapt to new demands.
Agriculture is responsible for a large part of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that have …

Autophagy is an intracellular process that facilitates the bulk degradation of cytoplasmic
materials by the vacuole or lysosome in eukaryotes. This conserved process is achieved …

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a hotspot for many essential cellular functions. The ER
membrane is highly dynamic, which affects many cellular processes that take place within …
