physiological function | increased expression of Arabidopsis hexokinase-1 decreases the expression of photosynthetic genes and the rate of transpiration and inhibits growth. Hexokinase-1 also decreases root and stem hydraulic conductivity and leaf mesophyll CO? conductance. Expression of Nicotiana tabacum aquaporin AQP1 significantly improves growth and increases the transpiration rates of hexokinase-expressing plants. This complementation occurs when both genes are expressed simultaneously in the shoot. Yet, AQP1 has only a marginal effect on the hydraulic conductivity of the double-transgenic plants | Arabidopsis thaliana |
