| Abstract | Aquaporins are water channel proteins that control the flow of water across cellular membranes and play vital roles in all aspects of plant–water relations. Our previous identification of 35 wheat PIP and TIP aquaporin genes showed they formed a large family with many conserved features that are thought to be important in structure and function. The present work focussed on determining the positions of these genes in the wheat genome in order to help investigate their functions in water uptake and transport. Genomic locations of wheat PIPs and TIPs were predicted using a number of reported rice–wheat comparative maps and additional in silico approaches. Physical mapping of select genes utilising aneuploid stocks and progenitor DNAs placed these on chromosomes 2B, 2D, 6B and 7B and helped to clarify the individual genes and homoeologues. The compilation of all in silico and physical mapping work confirmed many of the orthologous relationships between wheat and rice and/or barley genes, and synteny in the related areas of genome. These results further reinforce that wheat PIP and TIP proteins are most likely to have similar functions to those closely related in rice, including water permeability and abiotic stress response, and provide important tools for future investigations into the involvement of this complex gene family in traits related to plant-water relations and osmotic stress response. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
