Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Leaf aging did not change sunflower leaf chlorophyll content.
- Observation Sunflower leaf aging decreased total protein content and membrane stability index.
- Observation Sunflower leaf aging increased lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide.
- Observation Senescent sunflower leaves had higher hydrogen peroxide scavenging enzyme activity than young leaves.
- Observation Senescent sunflower leaves had higher glutathione S-transferase activity than young leaves.
- Observation Sunflower cellular defense potential declined with increasing leaf age while oxidant production exceeded scavenging.
- Intervention effect Hydrogen peroxide in senescent sunflower leaves reached its highest level under high light intensity.
- Intervention effect Under high light intensity, glutathione S-transferase activity was lower than under low light intensity in aged sunflower leaves.
- Mechanism High light caused chlorophyll oxidation and reduced its content in aged sunflower leaves.
- Intervention effect Under high light, oxidative damage was greater in aged sunflower leaves than young leaves.
