Abstract: ABSTRACT Thermoregulatory behaviors are powerful effectors for core body temperature (Tc) regulation. We evaluated the involvement of afferent fibers ascending through the dorsal portion of the lateral funiculus (DLF) of the spinal cord in “spontaneous”… read more here.

Abstract: When exposed to fluctuating light intensity, chloroplasts move towards weak light (accumulation response), and away from strong light (avoidance response). In addition, cold treatment (5°C) induces the avoidance response even under weak-light conditions (cold-avoidance response).… read more here.
