Abstract excerpt
During leaf senescence, the degradation of photosystems and photosynthetic pigments proceeds in a coordinated manner, which would minimize the potential photodamage to cells. Both photosystem I and II are composed of core complexes and peripheral antenna complexes, with the former binding chlorophyll a and the latter binding chlorophyll a and b. Although the degradation of peripheral antenna complexes is...
