Summary: This study investigates the dormancy depth and cold hardiness of woody temperate plant species during winter and their effects on frost risk. The maximum dormancy depth occurs between early October and early December, while cold hardiness peaks in mid-winter. Over the past 70 years, budburst dates have advanced, and dormancy depth in early spring has increased due to reduced chilling accumulation. However, cold hardiness has decreased due to weakened acclimation and accelerated deacclimation. Frost risk before and after budburst remains unchanged due to the decreased occurrence and severity of low-temperature events and earlier late spring frosts.

Summary: Phenological shifts in response to changing climatic conditions are crucial for the survival of perennial plants in temperate and boreal climates. The timing of leaf-out is determined by a trade-off between avoiding freezing damages and maximizing resource uptake for competitive advantage. We conducted an experiment on four tree species and found that the timing of leaf-out significantly affected their performance and recovery from frost damage, with the most delayed leaf-out resulting in the lowest performance.

Summary: Overwintering plants acquire freezing tolerance through cold acclimation, which is essential for their survival in harsh winter conditions. In areas with persistent snow cover, plants are protected from freezing but susceptible to snow mold infection. To fight against snow mold infection, plants develop disease resistance via cold acclimation. However, the molecular mechanisms of cold-induced disease resistance are not fully understood. This review outlines recent progress in understanding disease resistance acquired through cold acclimation.

Summary: Plant hardiness zone maps are widely used and easy to interpret, but there are significant uncertainties that can affect their accuracy. A systematic review revealed gaps in communicating uncertainties, particularly related to downscaling and climate variability. To support quantification, tools for visualizing hardiness zones, differences, and uncertainties are presented. A case study in Hungary showed that different sources of uncertainties can result in varying spatial patterns that accumulate and interact. Maps based on continuous extreme minimum temperature are preferred for visualizing uncertainties over plant hardiness zone-based maps.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of rapid cold hardening (RCH) on gene expression and metabolism during recovery from cold stress in the American dog tick. The results showed that after recovery from RCH, 1860 genes were differentially expressed in ticks, while only 99 genes responded during recovery from direct cold shock. The accumulation of certain metabolites corresponded to transcriptional shifts in the pathways associated with these molecules, suggesting congruent metabolome and transcriptome changes.

Summary: The spring phenology and growth strategy of temperate tree species are strongly influenced by their sensitivity to frosts. Differences in stem hydraulic conductivity and vulnerability to freeze-thaw induced xylem embolism between diffuse-porous and ring-porous species lead to variations in spring phenology and growth strategy. Ring-porous species delay their spring phenology to reduce the risk of hydraulic dysfunction during spring frosts, but can offset the postponed growth with higher hydraulic efficiency and leaf gas exchange rates.

Summary: The pH of xylem sap in trees undergoes significant changes with the seasons, being acidic in spring and alkaline in winter. While temperature does not have a significant correlation with pHx in apple trees, it is affected by developmental stage. The seasonal alkalization of xylem sap is more pronounced in conifer trees, especially at higher altitudes. The pHx of xylem sap has a negative correlation with soil temperatures and is consistent with previous studies on angiosperm pHx. Overall, pHx appears to be a sensitive stress marker and an indicator of activity status in tree xylem.

Summary: Conifer (Pinaceae) needles, with exceptional leaf anatomy, have important implications for ice management and photosynthesis during freezing. Needle freezing behavior was evaluated based on natural freezing strain measurements at the alpine treeline. Ice localization and cellular responses were examined using cryo-microscopic techniques, and photosynthetic activity was assessed through gas exchange measurements. The lignification patterning of cell walls in mountain pine needles serves as ice barriers, preventing freeze-dehydration and enabling gas exchange in frozen needles. The elaborate needle freezing pattern appears to be ecologically important at the treeline.

Summary: Heat and drought stresses are important topics in the context of climate change, especially in the Alps. A study found that alpine plants can gradually adapt to heat and achieve maximum tolerance within a week. The antioxidant mechanisms of Primula minima leaves that were heat hardened without or with additional drought stress were investigated. The results showed a weakened low-molecular-weight antioxidant defense but increased activity of antioxidant enzymes, particularly under drought conditions.

Summary: Climate change increases the severity and duration of heatwaves, which has a significant impact on plants. The current method of determining heat limits for plants is based on a 30-minute test, which fails to consider the effect of heat-dose (intensity x exposure-duration) on heat limits. This study measured heat limits for dysfunction and damage in alpine species after exposure to various heat-doses, and found that exposure-duration had a significant impact on these heat limits. The findings suggest the need for a more comprehensive approach to assessing plants' heat tolerance.

Summary: This study demonstrated that co-expressing two exogenous genes, tfdB and bphC, in Arabidopsis thaliana improved the tolerance and removal efficiency of PCB28. Transgenic plants also exhibited increased enzymatic activities under PCB28 stress. The co-expression of tfdB and bphC in A. thaliana resulted in nearly twofold increase in PCB28 removal rates from soil. This research suggests that co-expressing two genes holds great potential for enhancing phytoremediation efficiency and mitigating PCB-induced toxicity stress on plants.

Summary: In eukaryotic cells, epigenetic modifications of DNA and histones play a crucial role in gene expression regulation. ROXY19, a plant-specific CC-type glutaredoxin, was found to strongly repress a subset of genes regulated by class II TGA factors through its association with the TPL/TPR family. The ectopic expression of ROXY19 in Arabidopsis plants led to hypersensitivity to xenobiotic chemicals due to the silencing of detoxification pathway genes.

Summary: This study identified and characterized 163 C2H2-type zinc finger proteins in non-heading Chinese cabbage. Two of these proteins, BcZAT12 and BcZAT10, were found to be closely related to cold tolerance and acted as transcriptional repressors in regulating cold resistance. Furthermore, BcZAT12 was shown to directly bind to the promoter of BcCBF1 and inhibit its activity. Additionally, interactions between BcZAT12 and other proteins such as BcABF2/4 were observed. These findings provide insights into the functional roles and regulatory mechanisms of C2H2-ZFPs in non-heading Chinese cabbage under cold stress.

Summary: Soil salinization is a major obstacle for agriculture sustainability, as it severely affects plant growth and crop yield. Ethylene, a stress hormone, plays a crucial role as a signal molecule in coordinating plant growth and stress response in the model plant Arabidopsis. However, the roles and mechanisms of ethylene in most crop plants under salinity remain undefined. This review summarizes the universal roles of ethylene and focuses on its divergent roles in rice and other crop species under salinity, particularly in terms of ethylene biosynthesis and signal transduction. The contradictions between ethylene production and signaling in salt response are also discussed.
