Plant Thermomorphogenesis: Identifying Plant Thermosensors [PDF]
Plants are subjugated to fluctuations in temperature over daily and seasonal temporal scales. Because of their sessile nature, plants have evolved necessary physiological response pathways to temperature fluctuations in order to adapt to their ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Interactions between developing embryos and a multitude of environmental factors (e.g. climate, nutrition, social cues, stress and anthropogenic contaminants) underlie adaptive and non‐adaptive developmental plasticity and carry broad implications across ecological ...

Florigen and Florigen‐Like Genes Regulate Temperature‐Responsive Flowering in Tomato
This study uncovers that FLOWERING LOCUS T‐Like 2 (FTL2) and SINGLE‐FLOWER TRUSS (SFT) antagonistically regulate temperature‐responsive flowering in the tomato shoot apical meristem. High temperature induces floral repressor FTL2, which directly inhibits SFT to delay short‐day floral transition, while SFT reciprocally inhibits FTL2 to promote flowering.

Seasonality of the red blood cell stress response in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) [PDF]
The β-adrenergic stress response in red blood cells (RBCs) of rainbow trout shows seasonal changes in expression. We have explored the mechanisms underpinning this response by following over a period of 27 months changes in β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR ...

Interhelical h-bonds modulate the activity of a polytopic transmembrane kinase [PDF]
DesK is a Histidine Kinase that allows Bacillus subtilis to maintain lipid homeostasis in response to changes in the environment. It is located in the membrane, and has five transmembrane helices and a cytoplasmic catalytic domain.

OXYGEN GRADIENTS CAUSE PATTERN ORIENTATION IN DICTYOSTELIUM CELL CLUMPS [PDF]
We have investigated the formation of the prestalk-prespore pattern in Dictyottelium discoideum. Pattern formation occurs in clumps of Dictyostelium cells embedded in agar under a 100% oxygen atmosphere.

Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Drives Heat Adaptation by Sequestering Fatty Acids [PDF]
Cells adapt to temperature shifts by adjusting levels of lipid desaturation and membrane fluidity. This fundamental process occurs in nearly all forms of life, but its mechanism in eukaryotes is unknown. We discovered that the evolutionarily conserved C.

Molecular mechanisms of thermosensation
We feel a wide range of temperatures spanning from cold to heat. Within this range, temperatures over about 43 degrees C and below about 15 degrees C evoke not only a thermal sensation, but also a feeling of pain. In mammals, six thermosensitive ion channels have been reported, all of which belong to the TRP (transient receptor potential) super family.

Flame‐Retardant Ionogel Enabled by Lignin Molecular Networks for Fire Rescue
Wearable sensors for harsh, high‐temperature, fire‐prone environments face challenges in heat resistance and stability. This study introduces a flame‐retardant, waterproof glycol lignin ionogel (GLI) with a robust 3D network, exceptional tensile strength, strong adhesion, biocompatibility, eco‐safety, and dual temperature‐motion sensing, even after ...
