Blood-based gene expression as non-lethal tool for inferring salinity-habitat history of European eel (Anguilla anguilla)
Abstract The European eel is a facultative catadromous species, meaning that it can skip the freshwater phase or move between marine and freshwater habitats during its continental life stage. Otolith microchemistry, used to determine the habitat use of eel or its salinity history, requires the sacri...
