Genome-wide identification of aquaporin family in Camellia oleifera and their response characteristics to drought stress

Aquaporins (AQPs) facilitate transmembrane water transport and are essential for plant growth, development, and stress adaptation. Camellia oleifera is an important woody edible oil tree. Drought stress frequently occurs during the rapid fruit expansion and maturation stages, and AQPs might mediate its drought resp...
