Temperature stress Male behavior Sperm Thermosensitivity Survival of populations is dependent upon the ability of individuals to produce progeny. Despite this necessity, fertility has a flaw observed across species...

... vision Critical thermal limits Temperature stress Physiological limits are emerging as a key predictor of organismal sensitivity to environmental change ( Huey et al., 2012 ). Physiological limits can be exemplified by the concept of the thermal performance curve, which typically shows how...

.... Additionally, the differential expression profiles observed in this study show little overlap with those differentially expressed during temperature stress in the diapause state of M. rotundata . While the mechanisms governing the physiological response to low-temperature stress are shared, the specific...

...Alex S. Torson; George D. Yocum; Joseph P. Rinehart; William P. Kemp; Julia H. Bowsher ABSTRACT The transcriptional responses of insects to long-term, ecologically relevant temperature stress are poorly understood. Long-term exposure to low temperatures, commonly referred to as chilling, can lead...

.... The temperature challenge on the corals in this experiment (2°C increase for 2 days) was relatively mild compared with the temperature stress conditions associated with coral thermal bleaching events ( Hoegh-Guldberg, 1999 ). Nonetheless, this may imply that these two coral species are highly susceptible...

... kinase (AMPK)is a major regulator of cellular [ATP] and activates ATP-producing pathways,while inhibiting ATP-consuming pathways. We hypothesized that temperature stress in marine invertebrates activates AMPK to provide adequate concentrations of ATP at increased but sublethal temperatures and that AMPK...
