New Finding
Cold stress can mimic drought stress by reducing water uptake from the soil. Overexpression of a plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP2.5), also referred to as an aquaporin, helped maintain cell water conductivity as well as plant growth rate in Arabidopsis under low temperature as compared to the wildtype plants. Overexpression...
