Foliar Mineral Treatments for The Reduction of Melon (Cucumis melo L.) Fruit Cracking
Agronomy, 2020 Fruit cracking affects many types of crops and is a major problem since the breakage of the surface of the fruit produces high economic losses. Numerous studies have looked at different ways to prevent this, mainly in melon, but with a low success rate ...

Aquaporins in regulation of plant protective responses to drought
Ukrainian Botanical Journal, 2021 Plasmolemma permeability is an integral indicator of the functional state of plant cells under stress. Aquaporins (AQPs), specialized transmembrane proteins that form water channels and play an important role in the adaptation of plants to adverse ...

Silicon-mediated Improvement in Plant Salinity Tolerance: The Role of Aquaporins
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Silicon (Si) is an abundant and differentially distributed element in soils that is believed to have important biological functions. However, the benefits of Si and its essentiality in plants are controversial due to differences among species in their ...

Aquaporins in endothelia [PDF]
Kidney International, 2006 Aquaporin-1 (AQP1) water channels are expressed widely in microvascular endothelia outside of the central nervous system, including renal vasa recta and tumor microvessels, as well as in non-vascular endothelia in pleura, peritoneum, cornea, and lymphatics.

Journal of Cell Science, 2011 With a concentration of 55,000 mM, water is by far the most prevalent molecule in biological systems. For many years it was assumed that biological membranes are freely water permeable, so that the existence of a family of water channels would not have been predicted.
