Abstract:Cells of algae-containing ("green") and alga-free ("white") strains of the ciliate Climacostomum virens were compared for their responses towards a 1 h pulse of temperature stress. Although the upper heat shock temperature limits for the two strains were different (40-41 °C for "green", and 37-38 °C for "white" cells), the responses to high temperature were similar. The delay in the completion of cell cycle depended on the cell cycle stage at which heat shock was given. Cells exposed to heat shocks at G 1 stag… Show more
