evolution of tolerance to pcbs and susceptibility to a bacterial pathogen (vibrio harveyi) in atlantic killifish (fundulus heteroclitus) from new bedford (ma, usa) harbor. | a population of the non-migratory estuarine fish fundulus heteroclitus (atlantic killifish) resident to new bedford (nb), massachusetts, usa, an urban harbor highly contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (pcbs), demonstrates recently evolved tolerance to some aspects of pcb toxicity. pcb toxicology, ecological theory, and some precedence supported expectations of increased susceptibility to pathogens in nb killifish. however, laboratory bacterial challenges of the marine pathogen vibrio har ... | 2009 | 19110353 |
