Catostomus macrocheilus Transcriptome or Gene expression

This study provides a set of candidate biomarkers for environmental contaminant exposure, which may be useful for monitoring exposure of fish and other wildlife to contaminant mixtures found in the Columbia River Basin and other watersheds. Largescale suckers were collected from the three sites by shoreline boat electrofishing on March 23, 2010 and May 4–6, 2011. In 2010 we collected four fish from the Skamania site and three fish from the Longview site.
