freeze tolerance

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Rapid cold hardening protects against sublethal freezing injury in an Antarctic insect
    Nicholas M. Teets, Yuta Kawarasaki, Leslie J. Potts, Benjamin N. Philip, J. D. Gantz, David L. Denlinger, Richard E. Lee, Jr
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb206011 doi: 10.1242/jeb.206011 Published 7 August 2019

    Summary: Rapid cold hardening has a well-established role in preventing death from cold; present data show it also protects against non-lethal freezing injury in a freeze-tolerant Antarctic insect.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Insect fat body cell morphology and response to cold stress is modulated by acclimation
    Lauren E. Des Marteaux, Tomáš Štětina, Vladimír Koštál
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb189647 doi: 10.1242/jeb.189647 Published 31 October 2018

    Highlighted Article: Freezing disrupts fat body cytoskeletal and lipid droplet structure, and acclimation lowers the temperature of this disruption. Survival may relate to cytoskeletal repair but not to lipid droplet morphology.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Repeated freezing induces a trade-off between cryoprotection and egg production in the goldenrod gall fly, Eurosta solidaginis
    Katie E. Marshall, Brent J. Sinclair
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb177956 doi: 10.1242/jeb.177956 Published 13 August 2018

    Highlighted Article: In response to repeated freezing events, gall flies produce additional cryoprotectants at the expense of reproductive potential, suggesting that changes in thermal variability over winter will exacerbate the ecological impacts of climate change.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Thermal analysis of ice and glass transitions in insects that do and do not survive freezing
    Jan Rozsypal, Martin Moos, Petr Šimek, Vladimír Koštál
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb170464 doi: 10.1242/jeb.170464 Published 6 April 2018

    Highlighted Article: Differential scanning calorimetry analysis of ice fraction dynamics in two drosophilid flies indicates a tight association between proline-induced vitrification and survival of cryopreservation in Chymomyza costata larvae.

  • REVIEW
    The many roles of fats in overwintering insects
    Brent J. Sinclair, Katie E. Marshall
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb161836 doi: 10.1242/jeb.161836 Published 7 March 2018

    Summary: We explore the evidence that insects subsist on fat overwinter, the consequences of subzero temperatures for fat metabolism, and some of the emerging functional roles of fat in overwintering insects.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Potential sources of intra-population variation in the overwintering strategy of painted turtle (Chrysemys picta) hatchlings
    Julia L. Riley, Glenn J. Tattersall, Jacqueline D. Litzgus
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 4174-4183; doi: 10.1242/jeb.111120
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Wood frog adaptations to overwintering in Alaska: new limits to freezing tolerance
    Don J. Larson, Luke Middle, Henry Vu, Wenhui Zhang, Anthony S. Serianni, John Duman, Brian M. Barnes
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 2193-2200; doi: 10.1242/jeb.101931
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Seasonal accumulation of acetylated triacylglycerols by a freeze-tolerant insect
    Katie E. Marshall, Raymond H. Thomas, Áron Roxin, Eric K. Y. Chen, Jason C. L. Brown, Elizabeth R. Gillies, Brent J. Sinclair
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 1580-1587; doi: 10.1242/jeb.099838
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Hibernation physiology, freezing adaptation and extreme freeze tolerance in a northern population of the wood frog
    Jon P. Costanzo, M. Clara F. do Amaral, Andrew J. Rosendale, Richard E. Lee, Jr
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 3461-3473; doi: 10.1242/jeb.089342
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Soil salinity increases survival of freezing in the enchytraeid Enchytraeus albidus
    A. L. Patrício Silva, M. Holmstrup, V. Kostal, M. J. B. Amorim
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 2732-2740; doi: 10.1242/jeb.083238
