Figure Lengend Snippet: Phylogenetic Analysis of PIP1 Subfamily Aquaporin Proteins. (A) Sequence alignment of PIP proteins from hexaploid wheat and T. urartu. The amino acids highlighted in the same color indicate identical residues, while those in different colors represent variations. The six putative transmembrane regions (TM1–6) in PIP1 are marked with solid lines above the sequence; (B) Phylogenetic tree of TaPIP1 and its homologous proteins from different species. The full-length amino acid sequences of PIP1 were aligned using MEGA 6.06 software, and the phylogenetic tree was constructed using the neighbor-joining method with 1,000 bootstrap replicates.
Article Snippet: This study provided Gene Ontology (GO) annotations for the TaPIP1 family-encoded proteins through InterPro to reveal their functions in biological processes such as stress response and drought tolerance.
