Abstract excerpt
Leaf senescence, the final stage of leaf development, occurs in an age-dependent manner but can be finely regulated by other developmental and environmental factors. Despite the discovery of many genes involved in leaf senescence, the molecular genetic mechanisms of leaf senescence are still unclear. In this study, an activation-tagging based suppressor screen was performed to identify Arabidopsis genes that...
