The control of chlorophyll catabolism and the status of yellowing as a biomarker of leaf senescence (2008)
Journal Article
Ougham, H., Hörtensteiner, S., Armstead, I., Donnison, I., King, I., Thomas, H., & Mur, L. (2008). The control of chlorophyll catabolism and the status of yellowing as a biomarker of leaf senescence. Plant Biology, 10, 4-14. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1438-8677.2008.00081.x

The pathway of chlorophyll catabolism during leaf senescence is known in a fair amount of biochemical and cell biological detail. In the last few years, genes encoding a number of the catabolic enzymes have been characterized, including the key ring‐...

Development of a Genomic Microsatellite Library in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and its Use in Trait Mapping (2008)
Journal Article
King, J., Thorogood, D., Edwards, K. J., Armstead, I. P., Roberts, L., Skot, K., …King, I. P. (in press). Development of a Genomic Microsatellite Library in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and its Use in Trait Mapping. Annals of Botany, 101(6), 845-853. https://doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcn016

Background and Aims Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) is one of the key forage and amenity grasses throughout the world. In the UK it accounts for 70 % of all agricultural land use with an estimated farm gate value of £6 billion per annum. However...
