Inflorescence degreening is controlled by genes that regulate the timing of developmental leaf senescence. Detached inflorescences were held in the dark for 0, 3, and 5 d, and chlorophyll content was determined and expressed as a percentage of initial content at day 0 (D0). CS859988 (ANAC092 T-DNA insertion line). Mean chlorophyll levels (as a percentage of day 0) are shown for four to seven inflorescences for six lines at days 3 and 5 (D3 and D5). Error bars are 95% confidence intervals for the mean. All lines on both days 3 and 5 were significantly different from the ecotype Columbia (Col-0) line (P < 0.001), except for CS859988 on day 3, which was significantly different at P = 0.01.
