Genetic costs of tolerance to metals in Daphnia Longispina populations historically exposed to a copper mine drainage

The present study was conducted to assess three microevolutionary aspects of adaptation to pollution in Daphnia longispina populations historically exposed to an acid mine drainage from an abandoned pyrite mine: pollution mediated effects in acute tolerance to copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn); pollution-me...
