Mitochondrial adaptive change and a CAPr-correlated polymorphism in toxin-selected Brachionus plicatilis rotifers
To determine whether metazoan mitochondria retain the capacity to evolve on their own in response to selection pressure, I conducted an eight-month selection experiment on six populations of the monogonont rotifer Brachionus plicatilis. Rotifers were cultivated in brine shrimp hatchers under constan...
