How climate impacts organisms depends not only on their physiology, but also whether they can buffer themselves against climate variability via their behaviour. One of the way species can withstand ho
Wild coral colonies of Acropora tenuis were collected throughout the Great Barrier Reef and transferred to the Australian Sea Simulater (SeaSim). Corals were spawned, and produced purebred and hybris
In our previous study, we reported a high temperature adapted strain (HTAS) of the predatory mite Neoseiulus barkeri was artificially selected via a long-term heat acclimation (35°C) and frequent heat
To understand the molecular basis of heat hormesis, we adapted a regimen in which C. elegans that had been cultured at 20°C were exposed to 30°C for 6 hours during early adulthood (referred to as 'p
Understanding the evolution of adaptive plasticity is fundamental to our knowledge of how organisms interact with their environments and cope with environmental change. Plasticity in melanin pigmentat
