Plastic Responses and Standing Genetic Variation in Salinity-Responsive Genes Under Projected Salinisation in Freshwater Fish.

Abstract excerpt

Anthropogenic salinisation of freshwater ecosystems represents a major threat to biodiversity. While the ecological consequences of freshwater salinisation have received extensive investigation, our knowledge of the evolutionary responses to projected salinisation is more limited. Phenotypic plasticity can be an important first step to facilitate population persistence in stressful environments. Here, we combined...
