Cover Story: The red colored waters of the heavily modified Lake Koronia are caused by the huge numbers of Daphnia magna reaching the water surface during daytime. Daphnia species display high sensitivity to pollutants and adaptation to various environmental changes, and are thus considered biomarkers of environmental health. Under a great diversity of stressors, heat shock proteins (HSPs) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) can be triggered, providing benefits to develop stress resistance and adaptation. In our study, we present, for the first time, the expression HSPs and MAPKs in a Daphnia natural population and their role in the stress response to heavy environmental degradation. View this paper
