Here, we attempt the ex situ exogenous induction of thermogenesis in whole inflorescences and in separate appendices of the spadix, and explore the thermogenic patterns under controlled laboratory conditions of light and temperature. Mature but unopened inflorescences and appendices showed thermogenic responses when treated with salicylic acid (SA), but not when treated with distilled water (control). With regard to light conditions, the responses revealed only one significant difference for inflorescences, which concerns the higher maximum temperature in the continuous light treatment compared with continuous dark. Along the ambient temperature gradient, at the lowest temperature edge individuals remained stable close to ambient temperature and to control. These findings suggest that, in general, ex situ exogenous induction of thermogenesis can be achieved in whole inflorescences and in separate appendices of spadix of A. concinnatum using SA. This study also indicates that SA acts independently of light conditions, while exogenous induction of thermogenesis takes place within an ambient temperature range.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1071\/fp17247","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,8]],"date-time":"2018-08-08T18:59:40Z","timestamp":1533754780000},"page":"1195-1204","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Exogenous induction of thermogenesis in Arum concinnatum by salicylic acid"],"prefix":"10.1071","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"Danae","family":"Laina","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ioanna","family":"Oikonomou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Konstantina","family":"Koutroumpa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."},{"name":"BDepartment of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, University of Z\u00fcrich, Zollikerstrasse 107, CH-8008 Z\u00fcrich, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Bariotakis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiriakos","family":"Kotzabasis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kikukatsu","family":"Ito","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DAgri-Innovation Research Center, Iwate University, 3-18-8 Ueda, Morioka, Iwate 020-8550, Japan."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roger S.","family":"Seymour","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ESchool of Biological Sciences, University of Adelaide, Adelaide, SA 5005, Australia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6287-0795","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Stergios A.","family":"Pirintsos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ADepartment of Biology, University of Crete, PO Box 2208, 71409, Heraklion, Greece."},{"name":"CBotanical Garden, University of Crete, Gallos Campus, Rethymnon 74100, Greece."},{"name":"FCorresponding author.
