Impacts on Atlantic killifish from neurotoxicants: Genes, behavior, and population relevant outcomes

We studied the effects of embyonic exposure of methylmercury and PCB126 on larval Atlantic killifish Fundulus heteroclitus behavior. Three types of behavior tests were conducted, a feeding assay, locomotion assay, and a visual motor response assay (VMR). For each test, we conducted both controls and multiple sublethal levels of each chemical. Methods The data were collected as described in the manuscript. The data presented have been QA/QC'd, all jitters were corrected and the data were used in the study statistical analyses. Each data set contains the treatment and fish identification information.
