Study of yield components under heat stress conditions in wheat [PDF]

, 2013
High temperature tolerance can be characterised by measuring various plant productivity traits in different developmental stages. The present work investigated the effect of exposure to high temperature (30-35°C) at first node appearance, during ...

Transcriptome analysis identifies genes and co-expression networks underlying heat tolerance in pigs

BMC Genetics, 2020
Background Heat stress adversely affects pig growth and reproduction performance by reducing feed intake, weight gain, farrowing rate, and litter size. Heat tolerance is an important characteristic in pigs, allowing them to mitigate the negative effects ...

Heat stress response and heat stress transcription factors

Journal of Biosciences, 1998
Expression of heat shock protein (HSP)-coding genes is controlled by heat stress transcription factors (Hsfs). They are structurally and functionally conserved throughout the eukaryotic kingdom. In addition to the DNA-binding domain with the helix-turn-helix motif essential for DNA recognition, three functional parts in the C-terminal activator domain ...

PP2A mediated AMPK inhibition promotes HSP70 expression in heat shock response. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Under stress, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a central role in energy balance, and the heat shock response is a protective mechanism for cell survival.
