...Mads Kuhlmann Andersen; Nikolaj Johannes Skole Jensen; R. Meldrum Robertson; Johannes Overgaard ABSTRACT When cooled, insects first lose their ability to perform coordinated movements (CT min ) after which they enter chill coma (chill coma onset, CCO). Both these behaviours are popular measures...

... and range shifts of bumblebees (genus Bombus ), the few measurements of thermal tolerance available for the group have relied on disparate measurement approaches. We describe a novel stereotypical behavior expressed by bumblebee individuals during entry into chill coma. This behavioral indicator of minimum...

... recovered from chill coma (CCRT 80 ) from the CCRT model, commonly measured parameters in insect cold tolerance literature ( Sinclair et al., 2015 ). To determine the effects of cold exposure on both fertility and sterility, we exposed flies from the parental line and three Fst mutant lines ( Fst...

...Anders Findsen; Johannes Overgaard; Thomas Holm Pedersen ABSTRACT Low temperature causes most insects to enter a state of neuromuscular paralysis, termed chill coma. The susceptibility of insect species to chill coma is tightly correlated to their distribution limits and for this reason...

... phase are only beginning to be understood in insects. Hsp22 and Hsp23 are both upregulated during the recovery from prolonged chill coma in Drosophila melanogaster . This prompted us to investigate the functional significance of these modulations by testing whether expression of these two small Hsps...
