We present unresolved questions in plant abiotic stress biology as posed by 15 research
groups with expertise spanning eco-physiology to cell and molecular biology. Common …

Salinity stress is considered the most devastating abiotic stress for crop productivity.
Accumulating different types of soluble proteins has evolved as a vital strategy that plays a …

Agriculture is expanding into regions that are affected by salinity. This review considers the
energetic costs of salinity tolerance in crop plants and provides a framework for a …

Aquaporins facilitate the passive transport of water, solutes, or ions across biological
membranes. They are implicated in diverse pathologies including brain edema following …

Aquaporin (AQP) water channels are pivotal to renal water handling and therefore in the
regulation of body water homeostasis. However, beyond the kidney, AQPs facilitate water …

Compared to other organisms, plants have evolved a greater number of aquaporins with
diverse substrates and functions to adapt to ever-changing environmental and internal …

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

Aquaporins function as water and neutral solute channels, signaling hubs, disease virulence
factors, and metabolon components. We consider plant aquaporins that transport ions …

Environmental stresses of (a) biotic origin induce the production of multitudinous
compounds (metabolites and proteins) as protective defense mechanisms in plants. On …

Biological ion channels are renowned for their exceptional ion transport selectivity and
adaptability to environmental changes, posing a significant challenge for synthetic mimicry …
