Climate change

  • MEETING REVIEW
    Shifting away from the business-as-usual approach to research conferences
    Chelsie W. W. Counsell, Franziska Elmer, Judith C. Lang
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio056705 doi: 10.1242/bio.056705 Published 23 October 2020

    Summary: This meeting review provides details on a potential future direction for scientific conferences that incorporates restrictions relevant to the current pandemic and climate change.

    Chemical composition of food induces plasticity in digestive morphology in larvae of Rana temporaria
    Katharina Ruthsatz, Lisa Marie Giertz, Dominik Schröder, Julian Glos
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio048041 doi: 10.1242/bio.048041 Published 18 December 2019

    Summary: Tadpoles of the common frog (Rana temporaria) exhibit phenotypic plasticity of the intestinal morphology but not of the oral apparatus when raised on diets of different chemical compositions.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    High levels of floridoside at high salinity link osmoadaptation with bleaching susceptibility in the cnidarian-algal endosymbiosis
    Hagen M. Gegner, Nils Rädecker, Michael Ochsenkühn, Marcelle M. Barreto, Maren Ziegler, Jessica Reichert, Patrick Schubert, Thomas Wilke, Christian R. Voolstra
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio045591 doi: 10.1242/bio.045591 Published 16 December 2019

    Summary: Using the coral model Aiptasia, we show increased thermotolerance at high salinities, concomitant with a reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) release by algal endosymbionts. This suggests a mechanistic link between osmoadaptation and thermotolerance, mediated by ROS-scavenging osmolytes.

    Acclimation temperature changes spermatozoa flagella length relative to head size in brown trout
    Miriam Fenkes, John L. Fitzpatrick, Holly A. Shiels, Robert L. Nudds
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio039461 doi: 10.1242/bio.039461 Published 25 July 2019

    Summary: Two different acclimation temperatures cause divergence in brown trout sperm morphometry through changes in the relative head surface area to flagellum length ratio.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Independent and combined effects of daytime heat stress and night-time recovery determine thermal performance
    Chun-Ming Bai, Gang Ma, Wan-Zhi Cai, Chun-Sen Ma
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio038141 doi: 10.1242/bio.038141 Published 26 March 2019

    Summary: Daytime and night-time temperatures that organisms experience in fluctuating environments can determine thermal performance and have implications for predicting the impacts of diel asymmetric warming under climate change.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    High salinity conveys thermotolerance in the coral model Aiptasia
    Hagen M. Gegner, Maren Ziegler, Nils Rädecker, Carol Buitrago-López, Manuel Aranda, Christian R. Voolstra
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1943-1948; doi: 10.1242/bio.028878

    Summary: High salinity can be a factor contributing to increased cnidarian thermal tolerance, as indicated by reduced algal endosymbiont loss and reduced photosynthetic impairment in the sea anemone Aiptasia. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper as part of the supplementary information.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Effects of temperature and UVR on organic matter fluxes and the metabolic activity of Acropora muricata
    Lucile Courtial, Christine Ferrier-Pagès, Stéphan Jacquet, Riccardo Rodolfo-Metalpa, Stéphanie Reynaud, Cécile Rottier, Fanny Houlbrèque
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1190-1199; doi: 10.1242/bio.026757

    Summary: This study explores the individual and combined effects of temperature and UVR on the metabolism of Acropora muricata, and on the organic matter release and degradation by the associated bacteria.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Proteomic responses to elevated ocean temperature in ovaries of the ascidian Ciona intestinalis
    Chelsea E. Lopez, Hannah C. Sheehan, David A. Vierra, Paul A. Azzinaro, Thomas H. Meedel, Niall G. Howlett, Steven Q. Irvine
    Biology Open 2017 6: 943-955; doi: 10.1242/bio.024786

    Summary: Shotgun proteomics study of the effect of chronic elevated water temperature identifying 62 differentially expressed ovarian proteins and a model for the proteomic response mediated by PTPN11 and CrkL.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Coral calcification under daily oxygen saturation and pH dynamics reveals the important role of oxygen
    Tim Wijgerde, Catarina I. F. Silva, Vera Scherders, Judith van Bleijswijk, Ronald Osinga
    Biology Open 2014 3: 489-493; doi: 10.1242/bio.20147922
