Meeting Abstract S9-2.3 Saturday, Jan. 7 Evolution of Developmental Gene Regulatory Networks SMITH, J; Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole joelsmith@mbl.edu The Gene Regulatory Network approach to Evo-Devo promises the discovery of mechanisms of evolutionary innovation as well as of deeply conserved “cassettes” governing fundamental developmental processes. However, defining regulatory interactions on a network scale remains a formidable […]

How oxygen and temperature changes across latitude and elevation determine ecological distribution patterns
Meeting Abstract S9-2.1 Monday, Jan. 7 How oxygen and temperature changes across latitude and elevation determine ecological distribution patterns VERBERK, W.C.E.P.*; BILTON, D.T.; CALOSI, P.; SPICER, J.I.; Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands; Plymouth University, UK; Plymouth University, UK; Plymouth University, UK wilco@aquaticecology.nl Oxygen may set thermal tolerance limits. Such oxygen limitation arises when an individual’s capacity to […]
Evolution of tolerance to multiple interacting stressors in fish
Meeting Abstract S9-2.4 Monday, Jan. 7 Evolution of tolerance to multiple interacting stressors in fish SCHULTE, PM; University of British Columbia pschulte@zoology.ubc.ca Anthropogenic environmental change, which involves changes in multiple interacting environmental stressors, is having important effects on animals living in aquatic environments. Although we have a fairly good understanding of the effects of abiotic stressors in […]
