Thermotolerance and hsp70 heat shock response in the cold-stenothermal chironomid Pseudodiamesa branickii (NE Italy)
To better understand the physiological capability of cold-stenothermal organisms to survive high temperature stress, we analyzed the thermotolerance limits and the expression level of HSP70 gene under temperature stress of Pseudodiamesa branickii, an alpine stream’s species of Chironomids (Diptera)....
