A Drosophila model for toxicogenomics: Genetic variation in susceptibility to heavy metal exposure.

PLoS genetics - 1 Jul 2017

Abstract excerpt

The genetic factors that give rise to variation in susceptibility to environmental toxins remain largely unexplored. Studies on genetic variation in susceptibility to environmental toxins are challenging in human populations, due to the variety of clinical symptoms and difficulty in determining which symptoms causally result from toxic exposure; uncontrolled environments, often with exposure to multiple...
