Thermal tolerance

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Climate change and invasive species: a physiological performance comparison of invasive and endemic bees in Fiji
    Carmen R. B. da Silva, Julian E. Beaman, James B. Dorey, Sarah J. Barker, Nicholas C. Congedi, Matt C. Elmer, Stephen Galvin, Marika Tuiwawa, Mark I. Stevens, Lesley A. Alton, Michael P. Schwarz, Vanessa Kellermann
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2021 224: jeb230326 doi: 10.1242/jeb.230326 Published 12 January 2021

    Highlighted Article: Invasive bees in Fiji have greater thermal tolerance and are more desiccation resistant than the only native bee in lowland Fiji. Plant–pollinator relationships might shift with continued climate warming.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Sex-specific microhabitat use is associated with sex-biased thermal physiology in Anolis lizards
    Michael L. Logan, Lauren K. Neel, Daniel J. Nicholson, Andrew J. Stokes, Christina L. Miller, Albert K. Chung, John David Curlis, Kaitlin M. Keegan, Adam A. Rosso, Inbar Maayan, Edite Folfas, Claire E. Williams, Brianna Casement, Maria A. Gallegos Koyner, Dylan J. Padilla Perez, Cleo H. Falvey, Sean M. Alexander, Kristin L. Charles, Zackary A. Graham, W. Owen McMillan, Jonathan B. Losos, Christian L. Cox
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 : jeb.235697 doi: 10.1242/jeb.235697 Published 16 December 2020
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Rapid-warming tolerance correlates with tolerance to slow warming but not growth at non-optimal temperatures in zebrafish
    Eirik R. Åsheim, Anna H. Andreassen, Rachael Morgan, Fredrik Jutfelt
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb229195 doi: 10.1242/jeb.229195 Published 11 December 2020

    Summary: We show that critical thermal maximum (CTmax), measured at a rapid warming rate, is a relevant proxy for more prolonged thermal challenges, but cannot be used to predict growth rate in zebrafish.

  • REVIEW
    Mitochondria and the thermal limits of ectotherms
    Dillon J. Chung, Patricia M. Schulte
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb227801 doi: 10.1242/jeb.227801 Published 27 October 2020

    Summary: New perspectives and methodologies for investigating the thermal limits of mitochondrial performance suggest that these organelles may play a role in shaping thermal limits at the organismal level.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Heat and water loss versus shelter: a dilemma in thermoregulatory decision making for a retreat-dwelling nocturnal gecko
    Christian O. Chukwuka, Joanne M. Monks, Alison Cree
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb231241 doi: 10.1242/jeb.231241 Published 19 October 2020

    Summary: Duration of heating but not voluntary thermal maximum predicted water loss in a cool-climate viviparous gecko.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Neural dysfunction correlates with heat coma and CTmax in Drosophila but does not set the boundaries for heat stress survival
    Lisa B. Jørgensen, R. Meldrum Robertson, Johannes Overgaard
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb218750 doi: 10.1242/jeb.218750 Published 10 July 2020

    Summary: Hyperthermic failure of the Drosophila central nervous system causes heat coma, a trait varying in temperature between drosophilids, but neural failure is not the primary cause of heat mortality.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Mussel acclimatization to high, variable temperatures is lost slowly upon transfer to benign conditions
    Nicole E. Moyen, George N. Somero, Mark W. Denny
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb222893 doi: 10.1242/jeb.222893 Published 1 July 2020

    Summary: Acclimatization to high, variable temperatures is lost slowly with constant submersion, potentially facilitating animals’ survival during intermittent stressful thermal events. Previous acclimatization state influences the changes observed with constant submersion.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Microclimate buffering and thermal tolerance across elevations in a tropical butterfly
    Gabriela Montejo-Kovacevich, Simon H. Martin, Joana I. Meier, Caroline N. Bacquet, Monica Monllor, Chris D. Jiggins, Nicola J. Nadeau
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb220426 doi: 10.1242/jeb.220426 Published 16 April 2020

    Editors' Choice: Tropical forests along the Andes can greatly buffer climate. Butterflies inhabiting high elevations are less thermally tolerant but common-garden experiments suggest this is largely due to phenotypic plasticity.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Facultative hyperthermia during a heatwave delays injurious dehydration of an arboreal marsupial
    James M. Turner
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb219378 doi: 10.1242/jeb.219378 Published 6 March 2020

    Highlighted Article: When it is hot outside, a possum can save water and avoid dangerous levels of dehydration by letting its body temperature rise with the heat.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Nitrite-induced reductions in heat tolerance are independent of aerobic scope in a freshwater teleost
    Essie M. Rodgers, Gudrun De Boeck
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb212035 doi: 10.1242/jeb.212035 Published 10 December 2019

    Summary: Nitrite is a pervasive pollutant in aquatic habitats, which affects both heat tolerance and aerobic scope in juvenile European carp (Cyprinus carpio).
