โœฆ Synopsis


Abstract

LDHโ€B~4~ specific activity was determined from Fundulus heteroclitus collected in the field and from laboratoryโ€acclimated fish from four latitudinally distinct populations. The differences in the enzyme activity between populations for both fieldโ€caught and laboratoryโ€acclimated fish are significant, with the northern populations having the highest LDHโ€B~4~ enzyme activity. This clinal variation in enzyme activity is consistent with an evolutionary mechanism that compensates for lower environmental temperatures in colder northern latitudes.
