Role of calmodulin in thermotolerance [PDF]
Nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) are 2 key elements in heat shock (HS) signaling pathway. Our experiments indicate the existence of a cross talk among H 2O 2, NO, Ca 2+ channels, and the activation of calmodulin (CaM) to stimulate the DNA-binding activity of HS transcription factors as well as the accumulation of HS proteins so as to ...

Interaction between the Circadian Clock and Regulators of Heat Stress Responses in Plants. [PDF]
The circadian clock is found ubiquitously in nature, and helps organisms coordinate internal biological processes with environmental cues that inform the time of the day or year.

Thermotolerance in Lettuce [PDF]
Lettuce seeds differentially fail to germinate at temperatures above 21C according to genotype. Twenty-one lettuce lines were screened for their ability to germinate at temperatures from 24C to 36C. Four cultivars, `Dark Green Boston', `Valmaine', `Floricos 83', and `PI251245', were selected for this study because of their range of ability to germinate

Background Pollen development is central for plant reproduction and is assisted by changes of the transcriptome and proteome. At the same time, pollen development and viability is largely sensitive to stress, particularly to elevated temperatures.

S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) is considered as a critical regulator of plant stress tolerance for its impacts on protein S-nitrosylation through regulation of the S-nitrosothiol (SNO) level.

Effect of desiccation, starvation, heat, and cold stresses on the thermal resistance of Enterobacter sakazakii in rehydrated infant milk formula [PDF]
Enterobacter sakazakii has been implicated in outbreaks of meningitis, septicemia, and necrotizing enterocolitis in immunocompromised and premature neonates. In this study, the effect of desiccation stress, starvation stress, heat shock and cold shock on

A role for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the development of thermotolerance in Xenopus laevis embryos [PDF]
During heat shock, Xenopus laevis embryos exhibit an increase in the rate of accumulation of lactate and a loss of ATP relative to non-heat- shocked control embryos.

Could behaviour and not physiological thermal tolerance determine winter survival of aphids in cereal fields? [PDF]
Traits of physiological thermotolerance are commonly measured in the laboratory as predictors of the field success of ectotherms at unfavourable temperatures (e.g. during harsh winters, heatwaves, or under conditions of predicted global warming).

Increased salinity improves the thermotolerance of mesophilic nitrification [PDF]
Nitrification is a well-studied and established process to treat ammonia in wastewater. Although thermophilic nitrification could avoid cooling costs for the treatment of warm wastewaters, applications above 40 A degrees C remain a significant challenge.
