Up-regulation of the mitochondrial alternative oxidase pathway enhances photosynthetic electron transport under drought conditions

The aim of this study was to explore the role of the mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) in the protection of photosynthesis during drought in wheat leaves. The relative water contents of water-replete and drought-exposed wheat plants were 97.2+/-0.3 and 75+/-2, respectively. Drought increased t...
