Role of aquaporins within a leaf in leaf hydraulics and gas exchange of tree species

研究了水孔蛋白在树木叶片水力学和气体交换中的作用。研究发现，叶片水通道蛋白的激活与叶片气体交换的季节变化、叶片水力学和光响应以及气孔开度有关。激活叶片水通道蛋白似乎增加了所研究树种叶片气体交换率。CO2升高和土壤干旱对叶片水通道蛋白激活的影响不一致。

I studied role of aquaporins within a leaf in leaf hydraulics and gas exchange of tree species. I found that activation of leaf aquaporins was associated with seasonal variations in leaf gas exchange and light response of leaf hydraulics and stomatal opening. Activation of leaf aquaporins seemed to increase leaf gas exchange rate in tree species studied. Elevated CO2 and soil drought had no consistent effect on activation of leaf aquaporins.
