Effects of elevated selenium on body condition, oxidative stress, and organ health in greater scaup wintering at Lake Ontario

Effects of elevated selenium on body condition, oxidative stress, and organ health in greater scaup wintering at Lake Ontario

Abstract Elevated selenium (Se) concentrations have been detected in tissues of greater (Aythya marila) and lesser (A. affinis) scaup and it has been hypothesized that these Se concentrations may be affecting scaup health and reducing survival and, thus, negatively affecting scaup populations in Nor...
