- Observation The analysis identified 528 putative aquaporin genes across fourteen Cucurbitaceae.
- Observation The identified genes fell into five phylogenetic subfamilies with reported counts.
- Observation The PIPs subfamily comprised 212 genes.
- Observation The TIPs subfamily comprised 118 genes.
- Observation The NIPs subfamily comprised 146 genes.
- Observation The SIPs subfamily comprised 39 genes.
- Observation The XIPs subfamily comprised 13 genes.
- Observation Conserved structures and motifs supported subfamily-specific evolutionary relationships.
- Mechanism Whole-genome and transposed duplications were identified as primary drivers of aquaporin expansion.
- Observation Whole-genome duplication was common in Cucurbiteae and Sicyoeae.
- Observation Transposed duplication was common in Benincaseae.
- Association Genome size and aquaporin abundance showed a positive trend in Cucurbiteae.
- Association Genome size and aquaporin abundance showed negative trends in Sicyoeae and Benincaseae.
- Observation Functional analysis predicted that aquaporins transport urea, boric acid, and hydrogen peroxide.
- Observation Functional analysis predicted that aquaporins transport carbon dioxide, ammonia, and water.
