L-Cysteine Treatment Delays Leaf Senescence in Chinese Flowering Cabbage by Regulating ROS Metabolism and Stimulating Endogenous H₂S Production by Linzhi Gan, Zhenliang Mou, Jianye Chen, Wei Shan, Jianfei Kuang, Wangjin Lu, Yating Zhao, Wei Wei

“…Leaf senescence is a major concern for postharvest leafy vegetables, as leaves are highly prone to yellowing and nutrient loss, resulting in reduced commercial value and limited shelf-life. This study aimed to investigate the effect of L-cysteine (L-cys) on postharvest Chinese flowering cabbage stored at 20 °C. …”
