Effect of temperature and size on metallothionein synthesis in the gill of Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to cadmium
Although the degree of metal contamination is expected to be a primary determinant of metallothionein (MT) induction in marine mussels, at least at polluted sites, variability caused by temperature, and biotic factors such as size, may need to be considered when interpreting field data. To test the...
