However, we cannot rule out the possibility that a more extreme difference in thermal regimes may have induced thermal acclimation. Regardless, we found significant variance that cannot be explained by the thermal treatments. Our...

...Emily A. Hardison; Krista Kraskura; Jacey Van Wert; Tina Nguyen; Erika J. Eliason ABSTRACT Thermal acclimation is a key process enabling ectotherms to cope with temperature change. To undergo a successful acclimation response, ectotherms require energy and nutritional building blocks obtained from...

... hypoxia tolerance, many fishes cope with warming by adjusting physiological traits through thermal acclimation. Yet, little is known about how such adjustments affect tolerance to hypoxia. We examined European perch ( Perca fluviatilis ) from the Biotest enclosure (23°C, Biotest population), a unique ∼1...

... to modulate hypoxic performance via thermal acclimation is less understood. Here, we review the literature and ask whether hypoxic performance of aquatic ectotherms improves following warm acclimation. Interpretation of thermal acclimation effects is limited by reliance on data from experiments...

Before thermal acclimation treatments, the maximum bite force for D. leopardinus occurred at the lowest body temperature and fell sharply with increasing body temperature. After acclimation treatments, lizards acclimated at higher temperatures exhibited greater bite force. Bite...

.... The reason for the exaggerated transcript response of two subunits (COX6B-1 and COX7A-2) may be due to decreased decay. However, decay rate differences could not explain the patterns seen with another subunit that did not change in mRNA level with thermal acclimation (COX6A-2). Further, the decay patterns...
