Appropriate timing and rate of cold deacclimation and the ability to reacclimate are important components of winter survival of perennials in temperate and boreal zones. In association with the progressive increase in atmospheric CO2, temperate and boreal winters are becoming progressively milder, and temperature patterns are becoming irregular with increasing risk of unseasonable warm spells during the colder periods of plants' annual cycle. Because deacclimation is mainly driven by temperature, these changes pose a risk for untimely/premature deacclimation, thereby rendering plant tissue vulnerable to freeze-injury by a subsequent frost. Research also indicates that elevated CO2 may directly impact deacclimation. Hence, understanding the underlying cellular mechanisms of how deacclimation and reacclimation capacity are affected by changes in environmental conditions is important to ensure winter survival and the sustainability of plant sources under changing climate. Relative to cold acclimation, deacclimation is a little studied process, but the limited evidence points to specific changes occurring in the transcriptome and proteome during deacclimation. Loss of freezing tolerance is additionally associated with substantial changes in cell/tissue-water relations and carbohydrate metabolism; the latter also impacted by temperature-driven, altered respiratory metabolism. This review summarizes recent progress in understanding the physiological mechanisms of deacclimation and how they may be impacted by climate change.
