Overexpression of 7-hydroxymethyl Chlorophyll a Reductase from Cucumber in Tobacco Accelerates Dark-Induced Chlorophyll Degradation [PDF]
Plants, 2021 7-hydroxymethyl chlorophyll (Chl) a reductase (HCAR) plays critical roles in the Chl cycle and degradation during leaf senescence, however, its function in horticultural crops remains unknown.

Dynamic transcriptome unveils transcriptional network associated with chlorophyll degradation in tobacco leaves under high humidity and temperature [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceIntroductionChlorophyll degradation is a key determinant of postharvest quality in flue-cured tobacco. Excessive nitrogen application increases chlorophyll accumulation, leading to green discoloration or mottling and reducing market value after curing ...

THE DEGRADATION OF CHLOROPHYLL — A BIOLOGICAL ENIGMA [PDF]
New Phytologist, 1987 SummarySome 109tonnes of chlorophyll are destroyed each year on land and in the oceans. The fate of these chlorophylls is, however, largely unknown. This review describes the developmental stages at which chlorophyll breakdown occurs in aquatic and terrestrial biological systems, and the destruction arising from herbivory, disease, pollution and other ...

Chlorophyll b to Chlorophyll a Conversion Precedes Chlorophyll Degradation in Hordeum vulgare L. [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999 This study reveals by in vivo deuterium labeling that in higher plants chlorophyll (Chl) b is converted to Chl a before degradation. For this purpose, de-greening of excised green primary leaves of barley (Hordeum vulgare) was induced by permanent darkness in the presence of heavy water (80 atom % (2)H).
