A long-standing and yet open question is whether the circadian system is involved in photoperiodism. A limited set of protocols were credited with the ability of answering this question. The most widely used are the so-called "resonance experiments". Recent models, however, showed how the working of

## Abstract Several species of insects produce proteins in the winter that depress the hemolymph freezing and supercooling points thereby functioning as antifreezes. These proteins produce a thermal hysteresis (difference between the freezing and melting points). This study concerns the environment
## Abstract The present study was designed to investigate the photoperiodic responses of blackheaded buntings to various T‐photocycles [T =the period length of light:dark (LD) cycle]. Two series of experiments were performed. In series I, groups of buntings (n =8‐12) were exposed to LD cycles of 22
The rhythm of carbon dioxide output in Bryophyllum leaves was entrained on exposure to 0.25 h of white light every 24 h. Entrainment also occurred on similar exposure to monochromatic radiation in spectral bands centred at 660 nm and, to a lesser extent, at 730 nm, but a band centred at 450 nm was w
Ishida et al. [1994: Neurosci Lett 166: 211-215] reported the circadian change of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subtype 2C mRNA and photic induction of this receptor's mRNA in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Therefore, we investigated the role of NMDA receptor subtypes in the biological cl
