Transcriptomic assessment of resistance to effects of an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) agonist in embryos of Atlantic killifish (<it>Fundulus heteroclitus</it>) from a marine Superfund site

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Populations of Atlantic killifish (<it>Fundulus heteroclitus</it>) have evolved resistance to the embryotoxic effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and other halogenated and nonhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons that...
