中文摘要：

本文概述了近年来蜱类低温生物学研究现状及发展趋势，从蜱类的越冬行为适应机制和生理生化适应机制两方面入手，详细介绍蜱类的耐寒性、耐受低温的生理生化机制及滞育与越冬的关系等方面的研究现状及进展．以期为揭示蜱类响应低温的分子调控机制提供理论基础。

英文摘要：

The current paper introduces the recent research and development on the cryobiology of ticks, based on their overwinter behavior strategy and biochemical and physiological adaptation mechanisms, and provides detail infor- mation on the cold hardiness, biochemical and physiological mechanisms, the relationship between cold hardiness and diapause, which will give theoretical clues for subsequent research on the molecular regulation of cold hardiness of ticks.
