Metabolism of ovorubin, the major egg lipoprotein from the apple snail [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2003
The site of synthesis of molluscs lipoproteins is little known and was investigated for the egg lipoprotein perivitellin 1 (PV 1) or ovorubin in the freshwater snail Pomacea canaliculata. Tissues (albumen gland, gonad-digestive gland complex and muscle) of vitellogenic females were incubated in vitro at 25 degrees C for 12 h with 14C Leucine.

Molluscicidal Activity of Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) and Camellia sinensis var. Assamica (Purple Tea) Extracts Against Biomphalaria pfeifferi, the Major Vector Snail of Human Schistosomiasis in Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Freshwater pulmonate snails are prevalent across Kenya and act as intermediate hosts for trematode parasites, some of which are snail vectors for human schistosomiasis. Chemical molluscicides have rarely been used routinely in Kenya to control snails due to high costs of manufacture and the subsequent environmental concerns associated with their use ...

Metabolic Activity of Invasive Apple Snails Negatively Affects the Survival of Native Benthic Snail in Mangrove. [PDF]

open access: yesBiology (Basel)
The golden apple snail (GAS, Pomacea canaliculata) has invaded mangrove forests. The effect of water contaminated by metabolic activity of GAS feeding on Acanthus ilicifolius (T1), Sonneratia apetala (T2), and without food (CK) on the native mangrove black helmet snail (BHS, Neritina pulligera) was investigated under salinity conditions.

Effects of Predator Species and Size on Prey Escape Success Through the Digestive Tract

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Adults of the aquatic beetle Regimbartia attenuata can survive passage through the digestive tracts of six predator (frog) species, including a non‐native bullfrog. Their active movement through the gut likely facilitates their escape through the cloaca, irrespective of predator species or size.

Keystone Predation: What Is It, and Is It Supported by Empirical Evidence?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Keystone predation has been widely cited as a key ecological mechanism controlling community structures, but is supported by limited theoretical and experimental studies. Reviewing these studies showed keystone predation has been documented across realms, appears to be most prevalent in sessile and dispersal‐limited communities and can be modified by ...
