| الوصف: | Strawberry production: Examining cellular water use Insights into the mechanisms behind cellular water transport within strawberry plants could help optimize crop management and yields. Strawberry plants have shallow root systems, large leaves and produce fruit with a high water content, and so good water management is essential for optimizing commercial strawberry crops. However, the precise mechanisms inherent in cellular water management in strawberries are not clear. Marie-Christine Van Labeke at Ghent University in Belgium, and co-workers identified and coded three sub-classes of cellular water channels called aquaporins in the commercial strawberry, Fragaria x ananassa. Aquaporins form gated pores in cellular membranes, which open and close to control water transport within the plant. The researchers found that aquaporin sub-classes are expressed differently in stalks, leaves and fruits dependent on ripening stage, and, even within the same sub-class, they have individual specialized functions. |
