Scallop swimming kinematics and muscle performance: modelling the effects of "within-animal" variation in temperature sensitivity [PDF]

, 2005
Escape behaviour was investigated in Queen scallops (Aequipecten opercularis) acclimated to 5, 10 or 15 degrees C and tested at their acclimation temperature.

Effects of drought on optimum temperature of carbon fluxes in temperate grasslands

Environmental Research Letters
Ecosystem carbon flux components, including ecosystem gross primary productivity (GPP), ecosystem respiration (ER), and net ecosystem productivity (NEP), are the most direct indicators of ecosystem production capacity, carbon sequestration, and climate ...

Cardinal temperatures for planting-emergence phase in gladiolus

Ciência Rural, 2017
: The objective of this study was to determine the cardinal temperatures for the planting-emergence phase of gladiolus. A controlled environment experiment was performed in a growth chamber in the Universidade Federal do Pampa - Campus Itaqui, using the ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

High Pressure Enhances the Growth Rate of the Thermophilic Archaebacterium Methanococcus thermolithotrophicus without Extending Its Temperature Range

, 1988
Temperature and hydrostatic pressure are essential in determining the assemblage of species in their specific biotopes. To evaluate the effect of high pressure on the range of viability of thermophiles, the pressure and temperature dependence of the ...

Optimum temperature for floral terpene emissions tracks the mean temperature of the flowering season [PDF]

, 2015
Emissions of volatiles from leaves exhibit temperature dependence on maximums, but the optimum temperatures for the release of floral volatiles and the mechanism(s) of optimising these emissions have not been determined. We hypothesised that flowers have

Association between swimming performance, cardiorespiratory morphometry and thermal tolerance in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2014
This experiment tested the hypothesis that swimming performance in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr is connected to cardiorespiratory performance and morphology, as well as maximum heart rate (fHmax) related measures of thermal tolerance.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

How Predictable are Temperature-series Undergoing Noise-controlled Dynamics in the Mediterranean

, 2011
Mediterranean is thought to be sensitive to global climate change, but its future interdecadal variability is uncertain for many climate models. A study was made of the variability of the winter temperature over the Mediterranean Sub-regional Area (MSA),
