Changes in nitrogen availability lead to a reprogramming of pyruvate metabolism
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Leaf senescence, the last step of leaf development, is a highly regulated process, modulated by a number of internal and external factors. During the senescence process resources like nitrogen (N) are remobilized from senescent tissues to sink tissues. This intrinsically depends on the accurate dispersion of resources according to sink strength of various organs competing with each other. Consequently, N deficiency accelerates barley leaf senescence and its resupply can delay the senescence progression. In order to identify genetic and metabolic factors that regulate leaf senescence in response to N supply, transcriptomic and global metabolic rearrangements were analyzed in barley primary at early and later stages of N deprivation, and after N resupply to N-deficient plants.
