Collectively, this framework allows inclusion of both repair and accumulation of heat stress, and therefore also offers a consistent conceptual approach to understand the impact of high temperature under fluctuating thermal conditions. Further, this reconciling framework allows improved...

... implications thereof. Furthermore, the deterministic relationship between heat knockdown and recovery from heat stress is poorly understood but significant for establishing causal links between climate variability and population dynamics. Here, using Drosophila melanogaster in a full-factorial experimental...

Here, we assessed the direct effects of increasing air temperatures on the physiology of thick-billed murres ( Uria lomvia ), an Arctic seabird with reported mortalities due to heat stress while nesting on sun-exposed...

... adjustments to heat stress in arthropods from polar regions. It is clear that very little data are available on the heat tolerance of arthropods in polar regions, but that large variation in arthropod thermal tolerance exists across polar regions, habitats and species. Further, the species investigated show...

This study explored the rate at which field acclimatization states are lost when temperature variability is minimized during constant submersion. California mussels ( Mytilus californianus ) with different...

Differential expression observed in genes related to chitin and cuticle formation lends support to previous findings that these processes are highly regulated following heat stress. We performed a genome scan and identified a set of 396 genes associated with canonical heat shock elements. RNA-seq...

...). One day after complete freezing, most insects died (70% mortality), and after 4 days, 90% of them had succumbed. The SCGE assays showed substantial levels of DNA damage in hemocytes. When cockroaches were heat-stressed, the level of DNA damage was similar to that observed in the freezing treatment...

Five experimental IP embryos had reached the star fracture of the eggshell and, therefore, were almost entering the external pipping phase. A third group consisted of embryos just before the IP phase (pre-IP embryos...
