Rotifers are widespread and abundant in aquatic ecosystems and are valuable live feeds in aquaculture and fisheries. They are particularly useful in evaluating full life cycle and population-level effects in response to pollutant exposures. Rotifers have, therefore, been considered as a promising species in aquatic ecotoxicology. The importance of using rotifers in aquatic ecotoxicology was constantly reviewed (Snell and Janssen Hydrobiologia 313/314:231–247, 1995; Dahms et al. Aquat Toxicol 101:1–12, 2011). This chapter will focus on discussing, with diverse examples, why rotifers became promising model species in ecotoxicology, taking into account their biological, physiological, and genomic information. Ecotoxicogenomic approaches using RNA-seq and genomic approaches will be demonstrated. In particular, the monogonont rotifer Brachionus sp. will be introduced as a target taxon for ecotoxicogenomic studies with substantial genetic information.
