Why and how plants senesce are deep questions that scientists are now beginning to answer, using all the tools of modern research. plantsenescence.net is a portal into the current state of understanding about plant senescence. It connects with the world community of scientists whose research is expanding and exploiting our knowledge of this economically, environmentally and culturally important subject.
	SenNet is a growing network of researchers on plant senescence, mostly based in Europe but also including major groups elsewhere in the world, including Israel, USA, Australasia, S Korea and Argentina.
