Salt stress in maize: effects, resistance mechanisms, and management. A review (2015, neutral): “In fact, in maize, there are more than 30 different aquaporin genes (Chaumont et al. 2001), and the regulation of these genes allows mycorrhizal plants to maintain better water status in their tissues.”
Roles of Aquaporins in Root Responses to Irrigation (2005, background): “At least 31 MIPs have been identified in maize (Chaumont et al. 2001).”
Aquaporins: Highly Regulated Channels Controlling Plant Water Relations1 (2014, background): “…the eudicots Arabidopsis, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), poplar (Populus trichocarpa), upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), and soybean (Glycine max; Chaumont et al., 2001; Johanson et al., 2001; Sakurai et al., 2005; Ishibashi, 2006; Gupta and Sankararamakrishnan, 2009; Sade et al., 2009; Park et…”
Genome-wide identification and characterization of the aquaporin gene family in Sorghum bicolor (L.) (2015, background): “Based on their subcellular localization and sequence homology, higher plant AQPs can be classified into five major subfamilies: plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs), tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs), nodulin 26-like intrinsic proteins (NIPs), small basic intrinsic proteins (SIPs) and X intri”
Salinity stress alleviation using arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. A review (2011, neutral): “In fact, in Arabidopsis , maize and rice, there are over 30 different aquaporins genes (Chaumont et al. 2001; Johanson et al. 2001; Sakurai et al. 2005).”
Water Flow in the Roots of Crop Species: The Influence of Root Structure, Aquaporin Activity, and Waterlogging (2007, background): “thaliana genome contains 35 sequences that are AQP homologues and at least 31 AQPs have been identified in maize and 33 in rice (Chaumont et al., 2001; Quigley et al., 2001; Sakurai et al., 2005).”
The role of aquaporins in root water uptake. (2002, background): “The count of MIP genes in other plant species is still incomplete but a similarly high number is expected (Kirch et al., 2000; Chaumont et al., 2001).”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, neutral): “In plants, aquaporins are subdivided into five evolutionarily distinct subfamilies: the plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs), the tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs), the small basic intrinsic proteins (SIPs), the nodulin26like intrinsic proteins (NIPs) (Chaumont et al., 2001; Johanson et al., ”

Aquaporins account for variations in hydraulic conductance for metabolically active root regions of Agave deserti in wet, dry, and rewetted soil (2004, methodology): “Except under dry conditions, treatment with 25 mM HgCl2 inhibited water transport for the distal (youngest) and the basal (oldest) root regions of Agave deserti, suggesting the involvement of aquaporins (Chaumont et al. 2000; Javot & Maurel 2002).”
