Abstract:
... Invertase inhibitor (InvInh) represses acid invertase (AI) activity though interacting with AI at post-translation level, which plays important roles in vegetative and reproductive processes and stress responses of plant. Our previous studies revealed that CsAI genes were involved in regulating cold response of tea plant, while the post-translation regulation mechanism of AI and the roles of InvIn ...
... Temperature is an important factor that affects geographic distribution, reproduction, and physiological processes of organisms. In this study, we used quantitative PCR to analyze the effects of low temperature stress (5 °C and − 2 °C) on the expression of fatty acid metabolism-related genes in different tissues of two wild populations(southern and northern) and three shell color strains (zebra, w ...

Abstract:
... SR4 genotype of rice is high altitude Himalayan rice prone to various abiotic stresses such as cold stress and therefore gives a poor yield. An efficient protocol for callusing and regeneration via direct and indirect means was established using mature seeds as an explant which can be utilized for molecular studies for genetic advancement of Himalayan rice genotype SR4 through transformation. High ...

Abstract:
... Background: Cold-induced vasodilation (CIVD) is a phenomenon that refers to a paradoxical increase in finger temperature that sometimes occurs during cold exposure. The aim of this study was to compare CIVD responses between women and men, during exposure to different environmental conditions. Methods: Seven men and seven women participated in a matched controlled study consisting of a familiariza ...

Abstract:
... Seed priming was documented to effectively enhance crop performance with ultimate better yield under a wide range of environmental conditions. The current meta-analysis summarizes the findings of 2394 observations collected from 68 articles indexed on Web of Science database about the impact of different priming techniques on wheat yield under different forms of abiotic stress. Economic yield (EY) ...

Abstract:
... The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) degrades intracellular proteins through the 26S proteasome. We analysed how cold stress affects the UPS in glial cells. Together with a reduction in the 20S proteolytic activity and increased levels of polyubiquitinated proteins, exposure of glial cell cultures to cold induces a partial disassembly of the 26S proteasome. In particular, we found that Rpt5, a su ...

Abstract:
... C‐repeat binding factors (CBFs) are key cold‐responsive transcription factors that play pleiotropic roles in the cold acclimation, growth, and development of plants. Cold‐sensitive cbf knockout mutants and cold‐tolerant CBF overexpression lines exhibit abnormal phenotypes at warm temperatures, suggesting that CBF activity is precisely regulated, and a critical threshold level must be maintained fo ...
coldstress, etc ; Arabidopsis; biotechnology; epigenetics; loci; spring; vegetative growth; vernalization; winter; Show all 9 Subjects
Abstract:
... Plants have established highly sensitive systems to sense environmental cues and optimize their development accordingly. Long-term cold exposure in winter elicits flowering in many biennial and perennial plants, which is termed vernalization. Vernalized plants transition from the vegetative stage in winter to the reproductive stage in the subsequent spring season. In terms of molecular mechanisms, ...

Abstract:
... Poor fruit set and growth are known to be caused by temperature stress in tomato cultivation. We focused on the effect of short-term temperature stress on each day during the five days before anthesis. The relationship between temperature stress and auxin-related factors was investigated using an experimental tomato cultivar, Micro-Tom expressing the auxin reporter DR5::GUS as a model system. Whil ...

Abstract:
... Plant annexins are evolutionary conserved protein family widely exist in almost all plant species, characterized by a shorter N-terminal region and four conservative annexin repeats. Plant annexins have Ca²⁺ channel-regulating activity and peroxidase as well as ATPase/GTPase activities, which give annexins functional specificity. They are widely involved in regulating diverse aspects of biochemica ...

Abstract:
... Although cold exposure is commonly believed to be causally related to acute viral respiratory infections, its effect on the immune system is largely unexplored. In this study, we determined transcript levels of a large panel of immune genes in blood before and after cold exposure. We included both Dutch Europid and Dutch South Asian men to address whether the immune system is differently regulated ...

Abstract:
... The ability of Escherichia coli surviving a cold shock lies mainly with the induction of a few Csps termed as ‘Major cold shock proteins’. Regardless of high sequence similarity among the nine homologous members, CspC appears to be functionally diverse in conferring the cell adaptability to various stresses based on fundamental properties of the protein including nucleic acid binding, nucleic acid ...

Abstract:
... Ginsenosides Rg₁ and Re are two major protopanaxatriol-type ginsenosides in Panax ginseng. Dammarendiol synthase (DDS) and protopanaxatriol synthase (PPTS) are the two key enzymes in the biosynthesis of PPT-type ginsenosides. Abscisic acid (ABA) is an important endogenous phytohormone, which is involved in abiotic stress. P. ginseng adventitious roots (PGARs) are attractive resources to be used in ...

Abstract:
... The Nemo-like kinase (NLK) is an important serine/threonine-protein kinase in many signaling pathways. However, its function in crustaceans, such as shrimps, is still poorly understood and needs to be further explored. In the present study, the full-length cDNA of NLK from Litopenaeus vannamei (LvNLK) was cloned. The full-length LvNLK cDNA has 2497 bp, including an open reading frame (ORF) of 1524 ...

Abstract:
... All plant α-tubulins encode a C-terminal tyrosine. An elusive tubulin tyrosine carboxypeptidase can cleave off, and a tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL) re-ligate this tyrosine. The biological function of this cycle remains unclear but may correlate with microtubule stability. To get insight into the functional context of this phenomenon, we used cold-induced elimination of microtubules as experimental ...

Abstract:
... Cold water pollution (CWP) is caused by releases of unseasonably cold water from large, thermally stratified dams. Rapid and prolonged decreases in water temperature can have depressive effects on the metabolism, growth and swimming performance of fish. However, it is unknown if reducing the rate of temperature decrease could mitigate these negative effects by allowing thermal acclimation/acclimat ...

Abstract:
... Psychrophilic bacteria are a type of microorganisms that normally grow in low-temperature environments. They are usually found in extremely cold environments. However, as people's demand for low-temperature storage of food becomes higher, psychrophilic bacteria have also begun to appear in cold storage and refrigerators, which has become a food safety hazard. In this paper, the optimal cooling str ...

Abstract:
... Triploidy induction is one of the promising techniques to increase growth in aquaculture and may minimize the negative impacts that escaped fish may present to the environment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of cold shocks in producing triploid individuals using a Neotropical migratory fish species, the curimba (Prochilodus argenteus). Cold shocks (4ºC) were applied at differ ...
