Plants frequently experience hypoxia due to flooding caused by intensive rainfall or
irrigation, when they are partially or completely submerged under a layer of water. In the …

Understanding which hydraulic traits are under genetic control and/or are phenotypically
plastic is essential in understanding how tree species will respond to rapid shifts in climate …

Leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf) facilitates the supply of water, enabling continual CO2
uptake while maintaining plant water status. We hypothesized that bundle sheath and …

The systemic coordination of accumulation of plasma membrane aquaporins (PIP) was
investigated in this study in relation to mycorrhized maize response to a rapid development …

Abiotic stress causes major crop losses and is considered a greater challenge than biotic
stress. Comparisons of the number of published articles and patents regarding these …

Salinity stress is a major problem affecting plant growth and crop productivity. While plant
biostimulants have been reported to be an effective solution to tackle salinity stress in …

Melon cracking is a physiopathy that is associated with both internal and external changes
by the alteration of the water balance and nutrient homeostasis in the fruit. Aquaporins are …

In the recent years, the biophysical properties and presumed physiological role of
aquaporins (AQPs) have been expanded to specialized cells where water and solute …

Here we report the effect of Rhizophagus irregularis on maize leaf expression of six plasma
membrane aquaporin isoforms from PIP1 and PIP2 subfamilies under severe drought …

In tall trees, the mechanisms by which foliage maintains sufficient turgor pressure and water
content against height-related constraints remain poorly understood. Pressure–volume …
