Physiological and Proteomic Changes in the Apoplast Accompany Leaf Senescence in Arabidopsis

The apoplast, i.e. the cellular compartment external to the plasma membrane, undergoes important changes during senescence. Apoplastic fluid volume increases quite significantly in senescing leaves, thereby diluting its contents. Its pH elevates by about 0.8 units, similar to the apoplast alkalizati...
