Thermal Plasticity is Regulated by a Key MicroRNA During Range Expansion of an Invasive Fruit Fly
Populations at the invasion front of Bactrocera dorsalis adapt through reduced phenotypic and gene expression plasticity, a phenomenon likely to be driven by genetic assimilation. We identify a key miRNA‐mediated regulatory axis, in which miR‐276b post‐transcriptionally represses thw, a conserved chitin‐binding gene critical to the cold‐tolerance ...

ENHANCED WINTER HARDINESS IN COMMON VETCH (VICIA SATIVA L.) FOR AUTUMN-SOWING IN THE CENTRAL HIGHLANDS OF TURKEY [PDF]
In central Turkey, common vetch is planted in spring, but frequent droughts cause crop failures. Autumn-sown vetch has more yield potential; but then winter killing is a major problem.

RESPIRATION OF APPLE TWIGS IN RELATION TO WINTER HARDINESS [PDF]
The cold resistance of woody plants has hitherto been studied mainly from the static viewpoint. The problem has been attacked, in most cases, either by means of chemical analysis of whole ground tissues of hardy and tender plants or by microscopic analysis of the tissue structure.

Study of apricot winter hardiness under controlled conditions
Abstract. The purpose of the research is to study the winter hardiness of apricot cultivars and hybrids and identify the most resistant ones to damaging factors of the winter period for use as sources for a given trait in breeding. Methods. The studies were carried out by artificial freezing using a climate chamber. Results.

Extreme Northern Acclimatization in Biennial Yellow Sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis) at the Arctic Circle [PDF]
Biennial sweetclovers (Melilotus spp.) are among the most winter-hardy of the legumes used as forage crops (Bula and Smith 1954; Gorz and Smith 1973; Hodgson and Bula 1956; Klebesadel 1971b, 1980). Common strains and cultivars of both yellow-flowered
