The genome sequence of the Antarctic bullhead notothen reveals evolutionary adaptations to a cold environment
BACKGROUND: Antarctic fish have adapted to the freezing waters of the Southern Ocean. Representative adaptations to this harsh environment include a constitutive heat shock response and the evolution of an antifreeze protein in the blood. Despite their adaptations to the cold, genome-wide studies ha...
