| Abstract | Previously, we showed that all greening mesophyll cells in the coleoptiles of rice (Oryza sauva L. cv. Nippon-bare) follow the identical program of senescence, which features the early degradation of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and subsequent nuclear condensation and disorganization. Following the coleoptile study, we analyzed the senescence-associated changes in the blade of the second leaf of rice at the tissue and cellular levels. Under the experimental conditions, the second leaf started to elongate rapidly 2 days after sowing and emerged on day 3. The blade of the second leaf completed its growth on day 4, although the sheath continued to grow until day 7. The amount of soluble protein and chlorophyll (Chl) per blade reached a maximum on day 7, and then declined. When blades were divided into three parts (the tip, mid-region, and base), levels of both soluble protein and Chl in the tip segment peaked earlier and decreased at a faster rate than in the other parts, demonstrating a longitudinal gradient of senescence from the tip to the base of the blade. In cross sections through the center of the tip and base segments, all the mesophyll cells senesced synchronously. They passed through the following steps in order: (i) degradation of cpDNA, (ii) decrease in the size of the chloroplast with degeneration of the chloroplast inner membranes, and (iii) condensation and disorganization of the nuclei. Although some differences were shown between the coleoptile and the second leaf in the timing and rate of each event, the order of those senescence-related events was conserved, suggesting an identical program of senescence exists in rice leaves. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
