A bacterial symbiont in the gill of the marine scallop Argopecten irradians irradians metabolizes dimethylsulfoniopropionate [PDF]
Microbial lysis of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is a key step in marine organic sulfur cycling and has been recently demonstrated to play an important role in mediating interactions between bacteria, algae, and zooplankton.

Physiological Impacts of a Newly Discovered Trematode Parasite on Its Host, the Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) [PDF]
Parasites have the potential to impact aquaculture by degrading product quality, increasing mortality, and reducing fecundity. Previous research has identified a novel trematode parasite, Saccularina sp., infecting the gills of wild and cultured ...

Sexual Development of the Hermaphroditic Scallop Argopecten irradians Revealed by Morphological, Endocrine and Molecular Analysis [PDF]
Simultaneous or functional hermaphrodites possessing both ovary and testis at the same time are good materials for studying sexual development. However, previous research on sex determination and differentiation was mainly conducted in gonochoristic ...

Effect of the Algaecide Palmitoleic Acid on the Immune Function of the Bay Scallop Argopecten irradians [PDF]
Palmitoleic acid (PA), an algicidal compound, is used against the toxin producing dinofagelate Alexandrium tamarense, however, its impact on the edible bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) is still unclear.

TORC1 Regulates Thermotolerance via Modulating Metabolic Rate and Antioxidant Capacity in Scallop Argopecten irradians irradians [PDF]
Target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) is a key regulator of metabolism in eukaryotes across multiple pathways. Although TORC1 has been extensively studied in vertebrates and some invertebrates, research on this complex in scallops is limited.

Marine Toxin Okadaic Acid Affects the Immune Function of Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) [PDF]
Okadaic acid (OA) is produced by dinoflagellates during harmful algal blooms and is a diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxin. This toxin is particularly problematic for bivalves that are cultured for human consumption.

Panoramic spatial vision in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians. [PDF]
We have a growing understanding of the light-sensing organs and light-influenced behaviours of animals with distributed visual systems, but we have yet to learn how these animals convert visual input into behavioural output. It has been suggested they consolidate visual information early in their sensory-motor pathways, resulting ...
