Cadmium accumulation and detoxification in a Cd-resistant population of the oligochaete Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri

It was reported earlier that the oligochaete Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri from metal-polluted Foundry Cove has evolved resistance to a combination of cadmium, nickel and cobalt (Klerks and Levinton, 1989). This paper addresses the possible physiological mechanisms by which this resistance is achieved. E...
