Long-term recovery from freezing in Belgica antarctica

This study examines how energy reserves and gene expression change between Belgica antarctica larvae that did and did not go through a freezing and recovery event (frozen and control). The midges were exposed to -5C for 24h and recovered for 15 days. Samples were taken immediately after thaw, 1, 3, 7, and 15 days of recovery for biochemical assays and RNA-sequencing, Dataset "survival" shows survival rate between frozen and control Datasets "carb results", "lipid results", and "protein results" show changes in energy reserves between frozen and control Dataset "KEGG results" show pathways elicited by differential gene expression between frozen and control
