Could contaminant induced mutations lead to a genetic diversity overestimation?

Ecotoxicology (London, England) - 1 Jul 2013

Sobral Olímpia, Marin-Morales Maria Aparecida, Ribeiro Rui

Abstract excerpt

Contaminant driven genetic erosion reported through the inspection of selectable traits can be underestimated using neutral markers. This divergence was previously reported in the aquatic system of an abandoned pyrite mine. The most sensitive genotypes of the microcrustacean cladoceran Daphnia longispina were found to be lacking in the impacted reservoir near the entrance of the metal rich acid mine drainage...
