Cadmium-induced genome-wide DNA methylation changes in growth and oxidative metabolism in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract Background Cadmium (Cd)-containing chemicals can cause serious damage to biological systems. In animals and plants, Cd exposure can lead to metabolic disorders or death. However, for the most part the effects of Cd on specific biological processes are not known. DNA methylation is an import...
