Extended leaf longevity in ore14/arf2 mutants. (A) Age-dependent senescence phenotype of the third and fourth rosette leaves of wild-type (‘Col’) and ore14-1/arf2-10 mutant plants at different ages. The photographs show representative leaves at each time point. (B) Survival curve. Values indicate the percentage of leaves alive on a given day after emergence (DAE). n=100. (C–E) Chlorophyll content (C), photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) of PSII (D), and membrane ion leakage (E) were measured from the third and fourth leaves starting at 12 DAE, when leaves had just reached full growth. Error bars indicate standard deviation (SD, n=30). (F) Age-dependent changes in gene expression. Total cellular RNAs isolated at the indicated ages were probed with CAB, RBCS, SEN4, and SAG12.
