Melatonin delays leaf senescence in pak choi (Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis) by regulating biosynthesis of the second messenger cGMP

Melatonin (MT) is a low molecular weight compound with multiple biological functions in plants. It is known to delay leaf senescence in various species. However, no data are available on the MT signaling pathway in postharvest vegetables. This study demonstrates that MT increases cGMP concentration...
