Article Synopsis
- Local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity are key for organisms' survival in changing environments, influenced by gene flow and temperatures.
- Lake Baikal's zooplankton, particularly Epischura baikalensis, is seeing changes due to rising surface temperatures, leading to new selective pressures.
- Research shows strong genetic differentiation related to temperature gradients, indicating that the species has the genetic variation and adaptability to cope with these environmental changes.
Temperature and salinity are important abiotic factors for aquatic invertebrates. We investigated the influence of different salinity regimes on thermotolerance, energy metabolism and cellular stress defense mechanisms in amphipods Sars from two populations. We exposed amphipods to different thermal scenarios and determined their survival as well as activity of major antioxidant enzymes (peroxidase, catalase, glutathione S-transferase) and parameters of energy metabolism (content of glucose, glycogen, ATP, ADP, AMP and lactate).
