Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Leaf pigment content is an important trait involved in environmental interactions. In order to determine its impact on drought tolerance in wheat, we characterized a pale-green durum wheat mutant (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) under contrasting water availability conditions. RESULTS: The pale-green mutant was investigated by comparing pigment content and gene/protein expression profiles to...
