Boreal pollen contain ice-nucleating as well as ice-binding ‘antifreeze’ polysaccharides

Ice nucleation and growth is an important and widespread environmental process. Accordingly, nature has developed means to either promote or inhibit ice crystal formation, for example ice-nucleating proteins in bacteria or ice-binding antifreeze proteins in polar fish. Recently, it was found that bi...
