Arabidopsis AGAMOUS Regulates Sepal Senescence by Driving Jasmonate Production
The signal that initiates the age-regulated senescence program in flowers is still unknown. Here we propose for the ephemeral Arabidopsis thaliana flower that it dies because of continued expression of the MADS-box transcription factor AGAMOUS (AG). AG is necessary for specifying the reproductive st...
