Analysis of <i>Carica papaya</i> Informs Lineage-Specific Evolution of the Aquaporin (AQP) Family in Brassicales by Zhi Zou, Yujiao Zheng, Zhengnan Xie

“…In contrast to a predominant role of recent whole-genome duplications (WGDs) on the family expansion in <i>B. sinensis</i>, <i>Tarenaya hassleriana</i>, and Brassicaceae plants, no recent <i>AQP</i> repeats were identified in papaya, and ancient WGD repeats are mainly confined to the PIP subfamily. Subfamily even group-specific evolution was uncovered via comparing exon–intron structures, conserved motifs, the aromatic/arginine selectivity filter, and gene expression profiles. …”
