Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how developmental changes affect peroxisome activity, focusing on gene expression patterns in specific metabolic pathways across developmental stages in plants.
- It finds that photorespiration is more prominent in adult leaves compared to juvenile stages, with additional pathways related to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and polyamine catabolism becoming more active as leaves mature.
- Key genes, including those related to GABA synthesis, are upregulated in older seedlings, suggesting that GABA plays a role in regulating peroxisome fission during leaf differentiation.
