Targeted approach to identify genetic loci associated with evolved dioxin tolerance in Atlantic killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus).

BMC evolutionary biology - 14 Jan 2014

Proestou Dina A, Flight Patrick, Champlin Denise, Nacci Diane

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The most toxic aromatic hydrocarbon pollutants are categorized as dioxin-like compounds (DLCs) to which extreme tolerance has evolved independently and contemporaneously in (at least) four populations of Atlantic killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus). Surprisingly, the magnitude and phenotype of DLC tolerance is similar among these killifish populations that have adapted to varied, but highly aromatic...
