TL;DR: This study comprehensively identified aquaporin encoding genes in tomato, which is an important vegetable crop and also serves as a model for fleshy fruit development and detected tissue-specific and development-specific expression of tomato Aquaporin genes, a first step towards revealing the contribution of aquaporins to water and solute transport in leaves and during fruit development.

TL;DR: This article identifies 52 genes in tomato putatively encoding sugar transporters, including the SUCROSE TRANSPORTER family, the SUGAR TRANSPorTER PROTEIN family, and established a nomenclature for all analyzed tomato sugarTransporters.

TL;DR: It is shown how species- and population-specific improvements of established protocols can drastically increase sample throughput and genotype quality and by using the comparatively low-cost MiSeq platform, it is shown that the GBS method is flexible and cost-effective, even for smaller laboratories.

TL;DR: This work suggests physiological roles of ABC transporters in tomato and provides fundamental information for future studies of ABCtransporters not only in tomato but also in other Solanaceae species.

TL;DR: A multifaceted transcriptome approach using the rice shoot base region illustrates a differential response to submergence between deepwater and nondeepwater rice, and Jasmonic acid metabolism appears to participate in the submergence-mediated internode elongation response of deepwater rice.
