Leaf Proteolytic Activities and Senescence during Grain Development of Field-grown Corn (Zea mays L.) 1
AUTOR(ES)
Feller, Urs K.
RESUMO
Some proteolytic enzymes occurring in the leaves of field-grown corn (Zea mays) (B73) were identified and partially characterized. Changes in activities of several proteolytic enzymes and in concentrations of protein and chlorophyll as a function of intraleaf segments (tip to base), leaf position, and leaf senescence during grain development and maturation were followed in crude leaf extracts.
