Positive selection in octopus haemocyanin indicates functional links to temperature adaptation

BACKGROUND: Octopods have successfully colonised the world’s oceans from the tropics to the poles. Yet, successful persistence in these habitats has required adaptations of their advanced physiological apparatus to compensate impaired oxygen supply. Their oxygen transporter haemocyanin plays a major...
