Cold water kills the leaves of African Violets. Where the water touches, it causes dead spots on the leaves. Room temperature water will not cause these dead spots.

Is a African violet a house plant?

It likes moist soil with no direct sun shinning on them. When watering, do not get any water on its leaves although if you blot it off no damage will occur. If you have a pet then keep the plant away from the pet as best you can. Keep your African violet in a room between 62˚F and 72˚F. African violets can tolerate temperatures as high as 90 degrees if you have a fan blowing near them and mist them with water several times a day.

Interaction between 'cold spots' and heterochromatin?

Cold spots on chromosomes, which are regions with lower recombination rates, are often associated with heterochromatin. Heterochromatin is a tightly packed form of DNA that is transcriptionally silent. The presence of heterochromatin can contribute to the reduction in recombination rates, leading to the formation of cold spots. The interaction between cold spots and heterochromatin can influence genetic diversity and the distribution of genetic variants along the chromosomes.
