Variation in sensitivity to cadmium among genetically characterized laboratory strains of the midge Chironomus riparius.

Chemosphere - 1 May 2008

Nowak Carsten, Czeikowitz Andreas, Vogt Christian, Oetken Matthias, Streit Bruno, Schwenk Klaus

Abstract excerpt

Estimating the extent of intraspecific variation in sensitivity to contaminant exposure is important in order to explain variation in the outcome of toxicity tests and to predict the effects of chemical stress on natural populations of plants and animals. However, only few studies provide evident data concerning intraspecific variation in life-history traits caused by a differential response to chemical stress....
