Physiological mechanisms of seasonal and rapid cold‐hardening in insects (2013, background): “A hypothesis termed homeoviscous adaptation proposes that organisms adjust their membrane composition at low temperatures to maintain a consistent level of membrane fluidity (Sinensky, 1974; Koštál, 2010).”
A unifying, eco‐physiological framework for animal dormancy (2020, background): “Some combination of dietary shifts, endogenous remodelling of nutrients and selective trafficking alters the composition of fatty acids stored internally and in the make-up of cell membranes (Arnold et al., 2011; Carey et al., 2003; Koštál, 2010; Ruf & Arnold, 2008; Seebacher, 2005).”
