Leaf Senescence of Soybean at Reproductive Stage is Associated with Induction of Autophagy-related Genes, GmATG8c, GmATG8i and GmATG4

Autophagy appears to function in bulk protein degradation and N remobilization in senescence. Depodding of soybean suppresses N remobilization from leaves, leading to “green stem syndrome”. Expression of autophagy-related genes (ATGs) and N contents of the leaves and stem was analyzed in soybean pla...
