Abstract excerpt

We report results of a multigenerational experiment with Chironomus riparius. Two strains with a high and a low level of genetic variability were exposed to a low, environmentally relevant TBT concentration of 80 μg Sn kg(-1)sedimentdw nominally (time weighted mean, based on measured concentrations: 4.5 μg Sn kg(-1)sedimentdw), and various life history traits as well as genetic diversity were monitored for eleven...
