Abstract
Far-red light was demonstrated to accelerate senescence in mature, green tissue of intact thalli of Marchantia polymorpha. The red/far-red reversibility of this phenomenon proves the involvement of phytochrome. As a daily exposure to 5 min red light is sufficient to prevent aging of the tissue, photosynthesis does not play a specific role in this response.Entities:
