We were unable to test some mutants because of poor growth and viability when developmentally acclimated at 18 °C. A significant interaction term between genotype and environment (cold stress with and without acclimation) indicated that the mutant differed in acclimation capacity compared with the genetic background control (w1118), represented here under the P value column. Boldface type indicates significance at P < 0.05. The score represents the difference between survivorship following acute stress (at −6 °C for 1 h) for RCH at 25 °C and DACC and at −8 °C for 1 h for RCH after DACC at 18 °C and survivorship after acclimation for 2 h at 4 °C followed by the acute stress. For survivorship proportions used to calculate score, see Dataset S2.
