To better understand the molecular mechanisms behind plant growth and leaf senescence
in monocot plants, we identified a mutant exhibiting dwarfism and an early-senescence leaf …

Leaf senescence, the final stage of leaf development, is a complex and highly regulated
process that involves a series of coordinated actions at the cellular, tissue, organ, and …

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 can limit crop productivity by limiting the growth phase. In the
present study, a spontaneous premature senescence mutant was identified in rice (Oryza …

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

Pectate lyase catalyses the eliminative cleavage of de-esterified pectin, which is a major
component of primary cell walls in many higher plants. Pectate lyase-like (PLL) genes have …

Background Early leaf senescence influences yield and yield quality by affecting plant
growth and development. A series of leaf senescence-associated molecular mechanisms …

Leaf senescence is one of the most common factors that affects the growth and yield of rice.
Although numerous genes affecting leaf senescence have been identified, few involved in …

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 …
