An ice-binding protein from an Arctic population of American dunegrass, Leymus mollis [version 2; peer review: 3 approved]

Several cold-hardy grasses have been shown to have ice-binding proteins (IBPs) that protect against freeze-thaw injury. Here, we looked for IBP activity in an Alaskan coastal grass, Leymus mollis (Pooidae), that had not previously been examined. Rhizome tissue had strong ice-structuring and ice recr...
