High altitudes are one type of extreme environment characterized by hypobaric hypoxia,extreme cold,strong ultraviolet radiation,and low energy availabilty that present tremendous challenges to human and wildlife inhab...
The influence of daytime tropical heat stress in the summer was studied in Holstein and Jersey heifers already acclimatized to tropical environments to determine their physiological response based on body thermal patt...
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is an important culinary and medicinal spice but is rarely cultivated due to the unavailability of seeds. Given the difficulties in adapting to plantlets produced in natural environ...

Extreme cold environment can threaten human health and life through increasing the risk of myocardial infarction,stroke,frostbite,and hypothermia.Insufficient heat production to maintain core body temperature is a maj...
The development of new agricultural industries is an important challenge for a region’s economic establishment. The connection between a research department at MIGAL Institute and biotechnology in aquaculture is an e...
Purpose Main purposes of pre-acclimatization by hypoxia conditioning(HC)are the prevention of high-altitude illnesses and maintenance of aerobic exercise performance.However,robust evidence for those effects or eviden...
Acute exposure to altitude negatively impacts exercise tolerance and reduces athletes’race performance due to lower atmos-pheric and body tissues oxygen partial pressures.Chronic exposure to altitude has also been us...
