Multiple paths to cold tolerance: the role of environmental cues, morphological traits and the circadian clock gene vrille

Abstract Background Tracing the association between insect cold tolerance and latitudinally and locally varying environmental conditions, as well as key morphological traits and molecular mechanisms, is essential for understanding the processes involved in adaptation. We explored these issues in two...
