Exploring the plastic response to cold acclimation through metabolomics

REVIEW : Post - translational regulation of cold acclimation response

Biomechanical Acclimation: Flying Cold

Why are animals reared at colder temperatures larger? A new study shows that fruit flies reared at lower temperatures are better able to fly in the cold.

Molecular basis of plant cold acclimation: insights gained from studying the CBF cold response pathway.

For the 75th Anniversary Issue of Plant Physiology, I contributed an article (Thomashow, 2001) in which I highlighted recent advances in the identification of genes with roles in cold acclimation: the process whereby certain plants increase in freezing tolerance in response to low nonfreezing temperatures. At that time, about 20 Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genes had been identified as co...

Differentially Gene Expression in the Brain of Common Carp ( Cyprinus carpio ) Response to Cold Acclimation

There are a variety of approaches to identify groups of genes that change in expression in response to a particular stimulus or environment. We here describe the application of suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) for isolation and identification genes in the brain of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) under cold temperatures. The materials were prepared through cooling the hybrid F2 of purse...

Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of the Response to Cold Acclimation in Eucalyptus dunnii

Eucalyptus dunnii is an important macrophanerophyte with high economic value. However, low temperature stress limits its productivity and distribution. To study the cold response mechanisms of E. dunnii, 5 cDNA libraries were constructed from mRNA extracted from leaves exposed to cold stress for varying lengths of time and were evaluated by RNA-Seq analysis. The assembly of the Illumina dataset...
