The ecophysiological plasticity of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus concerning overwintering in cooler ecoregions is driven by local climate and acclimation capacity.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus transmit diseases such as dengue, and are of major public health concern. Driven by climate change and global trade/travel both species have recently spread to new tropic/subtropic regions and Ae.

Species richness patterns of waterbirds overwintering on the Jiangsu coast for coastal reclamation

, 2021
It is vital to identify factors that affect the overwintering of waterbirds for conservation purposes. In this study, during the winter of 2018–2019, we documented 177,414 individuals of 74 species of waterbirds in the Jiangsu coastal area, an important ...

Sown wildflower strips as overwintering habitat for arthropods: Effective measure or ecological trap?

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 2019
Wildflower strips (WFS) are increasingly commonly adopted measures to promote biodiversity in agro-ecosystems. While their effectiveness in providing floral and other food resources for pollinators and natural enemies has been relatively well studied ...

From winter dormancy to spring bloom: Regulatory mechanisms in Microcystis aeruginosa post-overwintering recovery.

Water Research
Cyanobacterial blooms pose a significant environmental threat in freshwater ecosystems. These cyanobacteria exhibit resilience to cold and dark conditions during winter and flourish as temperature rise in warmer seasons.

Research on the adaptability of winter wheat Dongnongdongmai 1 (Triticum aestivum L.) to overwintering in alpine regions.

Plant biology, 2020
Long winters led to a one-crop-a-year cultivation system until winter wheat Dongnongdongmai 1 (Dn1) was successfully cultivated in Northeast China. This crop is resistant to extremely low temperatures (-35 °C).

Photosynthesis of Overwintering Evergreen Plants

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2003
In this review we focus on photosynthetic behavior of overwintering evergreens with an emphasis on both the acclimative responses of photosynthesis to cold and the winter behavior of photosynthesis in conifers. Photosynthetic acclimation is discussed in terms of the requirement for a balance between the energy absorbed through largely temperature ...
