A yellow-green leaf mutant was isolated from EMS-mutagenized lines of  Setaria italica  variety Yugu1. Map-based cloning revealed the mutant gene is a homolog of  Arabidopsis thaliana AtEGY1 . EGY1 (ethylene-dependent gravitropism-deficient and yellow-green 1) is an ATP-independent metalloprotease (MP) that is required for chloroplast development, photosystem protein accumulation, hypocotyl gravitropism, leaf senescence, and ABA signal response in  A. thaliana . However, the function of EGY1 in monocotyledonous C 4  plants has not yet been described. The  siygl2  mutant is phenotypically characterized by chlorotic organs, premature senescence, and damaged PS II function. Sequence comparisons of the AtEGY1 and SiYGL2 proteins reveals the potential for SiYGL2 to encode a partially functional protein. Phenotypic characterization and gene expression analysis suggested that SiYGL2 participates in the regulation of chlorophyll content, leaf senescence progression, and PS II function. Additionally, our research will contribute to further characterization of the mechanisms regulating leaf senescence and photosynthesis in  S. italica , and in C 4  plants in general.
