Genetic basis of resistance to stress in fishes. Molecular and classical investigations in a few model organisms

Abstract

The paper focuses on the recent scientific results from genetics of thermal stress tolerance and discusses about heat shock genes in several model fish organisms, such as: the guppy (Poecilia reticulata), the Antarctic fish (Trematomus bernacchii), the desert fish (Poeciliopsis lucida), the zebrafish (Danio rerio), fugu (Takifugu rubripes), and others.
