Aquaporins are membrane channels that facilitate the transport of water and small neutral
molecules across biological membranes of most living organisms. In plants, aquaporins …

Plant growth and development are dependent on tight regulation of water movement. Water
diffusion across cell membranes is facilitated by aquaporins that provide plants with the …

Aquaporins are membrane channel proteins ubiquitously present in all kingdoms of life.
Although aquaporins were originally discovered as water channels, their roles in the …

Plants have evolved sophisticated systems in response to environmental changes, and
growth arrest is a common strategy used to enhance stress tolerance. Despite the growth …

Anthocyanin pigments contribute to the red color of apple (Malus× domestica) fruit and have
a major influence on their ornamental, dietary and market value. In this study, we …

Aquaporins (AQPs) are universal membrane integrated water channel proteins that
selectively and reversibly facilitate the movement of water, gases, metalloids, and other …

Light is known to regulate anthocyanin pigment biosynthesis in plants on several levels, but
the significance of protein phosphorylation in light‐induced anthocyanin accumulation …

Aquaporins are pore-forming transmembrane proteins that facilitate the movement of water
and many other small neutral solutes across the cells and intracellular compartments. Plants …

Aquaporins are channel proteins that function to increase the permeability of biological
membranes. In plants, aquaporins are encoded by multigene families that have undergone …

Background Turgor pressure is an essential feature of plants; however, whereas its
physiological importance is unequivocally recognized, its relevance to development is often …
