Insights into gene expression changes during ice encasement in perennial grasses

ABSTRACT: The predicted increase in frequency and duration of winter warming episodes (WWEs) at the higher northern latitudes is expected to negatively impact the forage production in this region. The formation of non-permeable ice cover due to WWEs could subject the plants to hypoxic or anoxic conditions leading to severe winter damages. Knowledge about molecular mechanisms underlaying various winter stress is crucial to develop cultivars with better winter survival under changing climatic conditions. In the current study, we aimed at identifying genes involved in ice encasement stress responses in a perennial forage grass timothy and study gene expression differentiation due to field survival using timothy cultivars from diverse genetic backgrounds. The LD50 (the number of days under ice that kil
