Abstract EN
In higher plants, aquaporin proteins (AQPs) play important roles in the uptake of water across cell membranes.
However, their functions in halophytes are still largely unknown.
In this work, we isolated, cloned, and identified KvTIP3, a tonoplast intrinsic protein gene from Kosteletzkya virginica.
Bioinformatic analyses demonstrated that KvTIP3 encoded a tonoplast protein with the common properties of AQPs.
Further multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analyses showed that KvTIP3 shared 65%–82% homology with other AQPs from Arabidopsis, cotton, polar, and cocoa.
Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analyses revealed that KvTIP3 was ubiquitously expressed in various tissues such as leaves, stems, and roots, with a predominant expression in roots.
In addition, KvTIP3 transcript was strongly induced by NaCl, low temperature, and ABA in K.

Our findings suggest that KvTIP3 encodes a new AQP possibly involved in multiple abiotic stress responses in K.
virginica, and KvTIP3 could be used as a potential candidate gene for the improvement of plants resistant to various abiotic stresses.
