“…Ectotherms, such as fish, acclimatize to varying temperatures by modulation of the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids in membranes to maintain membrane order (Ernst et al, 2016). This adaptive response, known as homeoviscous adaptation (HVA; Hazel & Williams, 1990; Sinensky, 1974), has been widely observed in ectotherm, such as fishes (Tiku et al, 1996), phototrophic sponges (Bennett et al, 2018), micro‐organisms (Gao et al, 2019; Řezanka et al, 2016), and bivalves (Pernet et al, 2007). However, due to the tremendous number of structurally and functionally diverse lipids in organisms, roles of lipids in response to thermal stimuli have not yet been fully described or understood.…”
