Prolonged Heat Stress during Winter Diapause Alters the Expression of Stress-Response Genes in <i>Ostrinia nubilalis</i> (Hbn.)
During diapause, a state of temporarily arrested development, insects require low winter temperatures to suppress their metabolism, conserve energy stores and acquire cold hardiness. A warmer winter could, thus, reduce diapause incidence and duration in many species, prematurely deplete their energy...
