Acclimation to prolonged hypoxia alters hemoglobin isoform expression and increases hemoglobin oxygen affinity and aerobic performance in a marine fish
Abstract Hemoglobin (Hb) multiplicity is common in fish, yet despite its ubiquitous nature, the functional significance is unclear. Here we explore the hypothesis that Hb multiplicity plays a role in hypoxia tolerance using the red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus). Red drum is an economically and ecologic...
