Seed Fe concentration does not effect long-term -Fe adaptation, all cultivars show a decreased root Fe content in − Fe conditions
Cultivars Blauwschokker and Vroege are susceptible, GftR intermediate effective and Kelvedon effective in long-term –Fe conditions
Most proteins regulated in their abundance have been shown to be abiotic stress and ROS related.
Proteins of the mitochondrial electron transport and protein metabolism play a significant role in long-term adaptation
