Intrigued by the behavior of laboratory animals that contradicted our current understanding of stress, the author and his group studied the beneficial effects of stress on animals and plants. The seemingly “crazy” animals demonstrated that several stress paradigms are outdated and have to be reconsidered..The book describes the general stress responses in microorganisms, plants, and animals to abiotic and biotic, to natural and anthropogenic stressors. These stress responses include the activation of oxygen, the biotransformation system, the stress proteins, and the metal-binding proteins. The potential of stress response lies in the transcription of genes, whereas the actual response is manifested by proteins and metabolites. Yet, not all stress responses are in the genes: micro-RNAs and epigenetics play central roles. Multiple stressors, such as environmental realism, do not always act additively; they may even diminish one | 出版日期 | Book 2012 | 关键词 | Ecological proteomics; Ecological transcriptomics; Stress ecology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-2072-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-9897-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-2072-5 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012 |
