From: The transcriptomic responses of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to high temperature stress alone, and in combination with moderate hypoxia

Schematic diagram of the experimental design. Post-smolt Atlantic salmon were either subjected to: i) a constant water temperature of 12 °C and normoxia (100% air saturation) (Control, CT); ii) a temperature increase from 12 to 20 °C and normoxia (100% air sat.) (Warm & Normoxic, WN); or iii) a temperature increase from 12 to 20 °C and moderate hypoxia (~ 70% air sat.) (Warm & Hypoxic, WH). The temperature was increased by 1 °C per week, following the temperature regimen shown in the upper left portion of the figure. Three days after the temperature increase to 20 °C liver samples were collected (n = 8 per treatment, N = 24 total) for transcriptomic screening (44 K Agilient Microarray) and qPCR (Fluidigm Biomark™) assessment/validation of transcript expression
