Evolutionary and acclimatory shifts in ion transporter gene expression across salinity transitions in the copepod Eurytemora carolleeae
Many aquatic invaders are crossing biogeographic boundaries from saline to freshwater habitats. This transition often requires acclimation or evolution of physiological mechanisms to maintain internal ionic homeostasis. Populations of the copepod Eurytemora affinis complex have repeatedly invaded freshwater environments from saline habitats over the past century, providing an ideal model for…
