The adaptation of rainbow trout to warmer water: Oxidative damage in the germinal line by Vianel Sevastei, Sonia A. Crichigno, M. Victoria Santos, Andrea Trochine, Julio C. Painefilú, Noemí Zaritzky, Víctor E. Cussac

“…The observed responses, mainly related to the sperm membrane, reinforces the idea that ROS can affect the germinal line of male rainbow trout juveniles subjected to high water temperature. Our results suggest that the acquired thermal tolerance traits may be part of a wide spectrum of novel characteristics produced as a consequence of an enhanced mutation rate and/or a different DNA methylation pattern, induced by higher temperatures and mediated by ROS.…”
