Although C2H2\u2010type zinc finger proteins are known to participate in various aspects of plant growth and abiotic stress responses, their specific role in regulating leaf senescence remains poorly understood. Here, we show that knockout mutation of the C2H2\u2010type zinc finger TF gene\n                    <jats:italic>ZOS202<\/jats:italic>\n                    (\n                    <jats:italic>LOC_Os02g02424<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) resulted in delayed leaf senescence under both dark\u2010induced and natural conditions, while overexpression lines exhibit accelerated leaf senescence, as indicated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) overaccumulation, chloroplast degradation, and leaf cell death. As a dual\u2010function transcription factor whose expression peaks at senescence onset, ZOS202 directly activates senescence\u2010associated TF genes\n                    <jats:italic>OsWRKY42<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>OsWRKY53<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic>ONAC096<\/jats:italic>\n                    , while repressing peroxidase genes\n                    <jats:italic>OsPRX113<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>OsPRX114<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic>OsPRX122<\/jats:italic>\n                    , thereby disrupting ROS homeostasis and promoting senescence.
