The Atlantic salmon’s stress- and immune-related transcriptional responses to moderate hypoxia, an incremental temperature increase, and these challenges combined

This study examines how moderate hypoxia and incremental temperature increases affect the stress and immune responses of Atlantic salmon. The combined stressors led to significant changes in the expression of stress-related and immune-related genes, indicating that multiple environmental stressors can overwhelm the salmon’s immune system and reduce their ability to cope with additional challenges.
