The fish or the egg: Maternal transfer and subcellular partitioning of mercury and selenium in Yellow Perch (Perca flavescens)

Mercury (Hg) is a trace element of particular concern since it is ubiquitous in the environment and because its methylated form (MeHg) readily bioaccumulates and biomagnifies in food webs. This latter process leads to elevated Hg concentrations in fish and may thus induce toxicity. Maternal transfer...
