This project investigates the molecular mechanisms behind cold tolerance in ants, focusing on species from boreal and temperate climates. By analyzing genetic and metabolic responses, it aims to enhance our understanding of how these insects adapt to extreme cold conditions.
The acquisition of cold-tolerance is one of the most ecologically relevant processes for ectotherms inhabiting temperate and boreal climates.
Given the fundamental importance of cold-adaptation in shaping ectothermic species’ distribution, much effort has been put into deciphering the physiological mechanisms constraining the plasticity of their cold-tolerance.
However, we still know little about how evolutionary pressures have shaped cold-tolerance acquisition in some key and ecologically relev…
