Temperature
- Acclimation temperature changes spermatozoa flagella length relative to head size in brown trout
Summary: Two different acclimation temperatures cause divergence in brown trout sperm morphometry through changes in the relative head surface area to flagellum length ratio.
- Daily changes in the electric behavior of weakly electric fish naturally persist in constant darkness and are socially synchronized
Summary: The nocturnal increase of electric behavior in Gymnotus omarorum is analyzed in the wild, in constant darkness and social isolation. This daily trait is independent of locomotor activity and modulated by social context.
- Metabolic rates, swimming capabilities, thermal niche and stress response of the lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus
Summary: Assessment of aerobic capacity and swimming behaviour of the lumpfish with swim tunnel respirometry at different acclimation temperatures and fish sizes, and measurements of haematological parameters in relation to exercise stress.
- Temperature-induced physiological stress and reproductive characteristics of the migratory seahorse Hippocampus erectus during a thermal stress simulation
Summary: We found that seahorse reproduction could adapt to higher-temperature conditions, but seahorses might experience massive mortality rates due to high basal metabolic rates and stress damage under chronic thermal stress.
- A locus in Pristionchus pacificus that is responsible for the ability to give rise to fertile offspring at higher temperatures
Summary: Here we describe a phenotype in Pristionchus pacificus responsible for increased fitness at higher temperatures, and present mapping of a locus responsible for this ability in two natural isolates.
- Response of garlic (Allium sativum L.) bolting and bulbing to temperature and photoperiod treatments
Summary: We show that a higher temperature and longer photoperiod are essential for garlic bolting and bulbing. Varied endogenous phytohormone and MeJA levels might lead to the different responses of the studied cultivars to treatments.
- 1H NMR metabolic profiling of cod (Gadus morhua) larvae: potential effects of temperature and diet composition during early developmental stages
Summary: Metabolomic ‘snapshots’ from developing cod larvae reflect the temperature and diet experienced from hatching to juvenile and provide insight into how important processes such as osmoregulation and muscle development might be affected.
- Do circadian genes and ambient temperature affect substrate-borne signalling during Drosophila courtship?
Summary: We studied the effects of circadian genes and ambient temperature on the substrate-borne signals produced by fruit flies during courtship.
