We investigated genome-wide gene expression associated with sex, pregnancy status, sea surface temperature, geographic location, and ecotype in bottlenose dolphins from the Southern California Bight. Our findings suggest that gene expression in cetacean skin is affected by changes in oceanographic temperature and differs between genetically distinct ecotypes.
