Effects of contaminants on genetic patterns in aquatic organisms: a review.

Mutation research - 1 Dec 2001

Belfiore N M, Anderson S L

Abstract excerpt

There is increasing awareness of the need to evaluate the effects of contaminants at the population level. Genetic techniques offer a powerful approach to assess contaminant-induced changes in populations. Yet studies to date are relatively few and not always carefully designed to maximize the utility inherent in this approach. We present a summary of contemporary genetic assessment methods and a review of...
