The main phenotypic characters of the green mutant were the delay of leaf senescence, the slow degradation of chlorophyll and the slow degradation of chlorophyll. The reasons for the lag of the green mutation are analyzed from the internal and external causes. Endogenous is related to the activity of enzymes in the chloroplast metabolic pathway, which is associated with the weakening of the activity of the enzyme. Ayumi Tanaka in the summary of chlorophyll metabolic pathways that chlorophyll b reductase, chlorophyll a reductase and hydroxymethyl porphyrin PAO enzyme of the 3 enzyme activity decreased and loss are likely to make the degradation of chlorophyll was blocked, resulting in plants stay green [3]. External cause is the genetic mutation caused by stagnation of green. In 50s Kerr of tomato (green flesh GF stay green mutants) and its genetic linkage, found that GF stay green is caused by genetic single nuclear recessive mutations, and the mutant gene is located on chromosome eighth of tomato [3,27]. Efrati of pepper mutant CL was studied [28] genetic and molecular mapping of pepper and tomato by CL GF in the corresponding molecular location on chromosome map, that Cl and GF stay green is caused by homologous gene mutation.
