Of Whales and Genes: Unraveling the Physiological Response to Stressors in Belugas (<i>Delphinapterus leucas</i>) at the Molecular Level

Marine mammals, now more than ever, are exposed to environmental and anthropogenic stressors. A better understanding of stress physiology in marine mammals is warranted in order to assist in conservation efforts. This study screened gene expression profiles (cytokines, stress-response markers) in bl...
