Mapping quantitative trait loci for freezing tolerance in a recombinant inbred line population of Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Tenela and C24 reveals REVEILLE1 as negative regulator of cold acclimation.

Abstract excerpt

The ability to increase freezing tolerance when exposed to low temperatures is a property of many plant species from temperate climates and involves a wide array of metabolic adjustments and changes in gene expression. In Arabidopsis thaliana, natural accessions show high variation in their acclimation capacity, and freezing tolerance correlates with natural habitat temperatures. To investigate the genetic basis...
