Article Abstract
Rice is highly sensitive to cold stress, particularly at the booting stage, which significantly threatens rice production. In this study, we cloned a gene, CTB6, encoding a lipid transfer protein involved in cold tolerance at the booting stage in rice, based on our previous fine-mapped quantitative trait locus (QTL) qCTB10-2. CTB6 is mainly expressed in the tapetum and young microspores of the anther. CTB6 interacts with catalases (CATs) to maintain their stability, thereby scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in anthers and facilitating tapetum development under cold stress conditions. Additionally, CTB6 has lipid-binding ability and affects the lipid content in anthers to regulate cold tolerance at the booting stage. Haplotype analysis and promoter activity assay revealed a specific single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-489 variation in the promoter of CTB6, which enhances its expression and results in improved cold tolerance in Hap1-K varieties. The CTB6 near-isogenic line (NIL) exhibited enhanced cold tolerance at the booting stage, with no significant effects on other agronomic traits. Our findings uncover a natural variation of CTB6 for cold tolerance at the booting stage and provide new genetic resources for cold tolerance breeding in rice.

Biological denitrification is an essential method for sewage treatment, though its efficiency is often constrained by low temperatures and insufficient organic carbon sources. In this study, a novel cold-tolerant heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens sp. Z03, was isolated from activated sludge, and its denitrification performance was evaluated.

Climatic challenges increasingly threaten global food security, necessitating crops with enhanced multi-stress resilience. Through systematic transcriptomic analysis of 100 wheat genotypes under heat, drought, cold, and salt stress, we identified 3237 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) enriched in key stress-response pathways. Core transcription factors (, , ) and two functional modules governing abiotic tolerance were characterized.

is the most widely cultivated high-protein forage crop globally. However, its cultivation in high-latitude and cold regions of China is significantly hindered by low-temperature stress, particularly impacting the root system, the primary functional tissue crucial for winter survival. The physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying the root system's adaptation and tolerance to low temperatures remain poorly understood.

Static cold storage (SCS) on ice has remained the gold standard preservation method for heart transplantation, and prolonged cold ischemia outside the typical 4-6 hour window is associated with an increased risk of primary graft dysfunction - a consequence attributed to ischemic damage and reperfusion injury. This, unfortunately limits the travel radius for donor heart procurement, a key factor that contributes to the overall shortage of donor organs. Recent research and clinical data have illustrated the validity of other preservation systems in preserving cardiac allografts, and many of these devices have shown promise in potentially prolonging the tolerated ischemic time beyond the accepted standard.

Peaches are highly susceptible to chilling injury (CI) during cold storage, which significantly compromises their postharvest quality. While α-lipoic acid (α-LA) shows promise in extending the shelf life of fruits and vegetables, its role in mitigating CI in peaches remains unexplored. In this study, postharvest peaches were treated with 0.
