Metabolic cold adaptation in the Asiatic toad: intraspecific comparison along an altitudinal gradient.

Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology - 1 Jul 2021

Abstract excerpt

The metabolic cold adaptation (MCA) hypothesis predicts an increase in metabolic rate and thermal sensitivity of poikilotherms from cold environments as compared to those from warm environments, when measured under standardized conditions. This compensatory response is also expected to evolve in life history and behavioral traits if the reductions in these phenotypic traits at low temperature involves in a...
