Cytokinin Mediates Photosynthesis and Senescence Action Through CHLOROPLAST IMPORT APPARATUS 2 (CIA2) and CIA2-like (CIL)

Progression of leaf senescence is regulated by internal factors like the plant hormone cytokinin (CK) that acts to delay senescence and retain photosynthesis by maintaining chloroplast-functionality. While initial CK-signaling components controlling senescence have been described, downstream targets regulating physiolo...
