Leaf Tissue Senescence

Constant Responsiveness to Hormones Despite a Seasonal Cycle in Senescence Rate 1

Peter J. Manos and Jonathan Goldthwaite2

a The Biological Laboratories, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138

During winter, excised leaf tissue from Rumex obtusifolius degrades chlorophyll at twice the summer rate but the plant hormones, gibberellic acid and zeatin, inhibit the senescence rate by a constant percentage, regardless of season.
