Understanding plant cold hardiness: an opinion.
How plants adapt to freezing temperatures and acclimate to survive the formation of ice within their tissues has been a subject of study for botanists and plant scientists since the latter part of the 19th century. In recent years, there has been an explosion of information on this topic and molecular biology has provided new and exciting opportunities to better understand the genes involved in...
متن کاملInsect cold hardiness : Metabolic , gene , and protein adaptation 1
Winter survival for thousands of species of insects relies on adaptive strategies for cold hardiness. Two basic mechanisms are widely used (freeze avoidance by deep supercooling and freeze tolerance where insects endure ice formation in extracellular fluid spaces), whereas additional strategies (cryoprotective dehydration, vitrification) are also used by some polar species in extreme environmen...
متن کاملPlant Genetic Engineering and Regulation in the United States
Genetic engineering (GE) is the application of recombinant DNA (rDNA) technologies to living organisms to provide new products and enhance existing ones. These products of biotechnology can include insulin and other pharmaceutical and medical applications, specialty enzymes for food production from GE microbes, and GE (also called “transgenic”) crops used in agriculture. These products of rDNA ...
متن کاملInterplay between cold-responsive gene regulation, metabolism and RNA processing during plant cold acclimation.
Temperate plants are capable of developing freezing tolerance when they are exposed to low nonfreezing temperatures. Acquired freezing tolerance involves extensive reprogramming of gene expression and metabolism. Recent full-genome transcript profiling studies, in combination with mutational and transgenic plant analyses, have provided a snapshot of the complex transcriptional network that oper...
