Plants that are unlucky enough to loose all of their chlorophyll will not be able to produce glucose through photosynthesis and will die.

This is happens if the entire plant looses chlorophyll; there are other examples of plants (such as white variegated ones) where only certain portions of the leaf have no chlorophyll, in these instances the food is produced and distributed from the areas that do contain chlorophyll to those which don't.
