Nothing, really. The colors in the birth/death sequence are used only in the preview of the life of the particle in the modeling settings.
Apply a shader to the particles directly, although you might want to check the various plugins (Seattlemickey comes to mind) that may make individual particle lifetime (what you want) available to the shader tree.
Alternatively, you may want to do a color mixer with the particle shader in the blender channel. That's what it was designed for.
