SUMMARYIntraspecific pairing of Haematoloechus medioplexus and Echinostoma revolutum adults and interspecific pairing of H. medioplexus and E. revoltum adults were studied in vitro at 21 ± 1 °C and 30 ± 1 °C in Petri-dish cultures containing an agar substrate and a Locke's 1:1 solution overlay. Salinity and temperature tolerance tests showed that both species survived for 24 h in a Locke's 1:1 solution at 21 ± 1 °C and 30 ±1 °C. For behaviour studies, worms were placed 2 cm apart and then observed at various intervals from 5 min to 4 h. H. medioplexus and E. revolutum showed significant intraspecific pairing at 30±1 °C, whereas only H. medioplexus paired significantly at 21±1°C. Significant interspecific pairing of H. medioplexus and E. revolutum occurred at 21 ±1 °C and 30 ±1 °C. Thin-layer chromatographic analysis showed that H. medioplexus adults released mainly free sterol, along with traces of triacylglycerols and free fatty acids into a non-nutrient medium.

AbstractElucidation of temperature tolerance mechanisms in yeast is essential for enhancing cellular robustness of strains, providing more economically and sustainable processes. We investigated the differential responses of three distinct Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, an industrial wine strain, ADY5, a laboratory strain, CEN.PK113-7D and an industrial bioethanol strain, Ethanol Red, grown at sub- and supra-optimal temperatures under chemostat conditions. We employed anaerobic conditions, mimicking the industrial processes. The proteomic profile of these strains in all conditions was performed by sequential window acquisition of all theoretical spectra-mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS), allowing the quantification of 997 proteins, data available via ProteomeXchange (PXD016567). Our analysis demonstrated that temperature responses differ between the strains; however, we also found some common responsive proteins, revealing that the response to temperature involves general stress and specific mechanisms. Overall, sub-optimal temperature conditions involved a higher remodeling of the proteome. The proteomic data evidenced that the cold response involves strong repression of translation-related proteins as well as induction of amino acid metabolism, together with components related to protein folding and degradation while, the high temperature response mainly recruits amino acid metabolism. Our study provides a global and thorough insight into how growth temperature affects the yeast proteome, which can be a step forward in the comprehension and improvement of yeast thermotolerance.
