Identification and functional analysis of a sex-biased transcriptional factor Foxl2 in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians irradians

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2021
Transcription factor Foxl2 is an evolutionarily conserved gene playing pivotal roles in regulation of early ovarian differentiation and maintenance in animals. However, the Foxl2 gene has not been thoroughly studied in hermaphroditic scallops. In this study, we cloned and characterized a Foxl2 (designated as AiFoxl2) from the bay scallop Argopecten ...

Copper accumulation in the bay scallop,Argopecten irradians

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1983
Adults of the bay scallopArgopecten irradians were held in flowing seawater containing 5 or 10Μg Cu/kg at ambient temperature and salinity. After eight weeks, scallops contained up to 91 and 310Μg Cu/g dry weight, respectively, in the total soft parts. Copper uptake was linear over time.

Nursery culture of the bay scallop, Argopecten irradians irradians, in suspended mesh nets

Aquaculture, 1991
Abstract Scallops were suspended subtidally in pyramid-shaped (pearl) nets in Long Island Sound, Milford, Connecticut, USA to assess effects of density and temperature at deployment on growth and survival. Juveniles as small as 4 mm were grown at densities ranging from 250 to 15 000/m 2 .

The effect of photoperiod on the reproductive development of the northern bay scallop, Argopecten irradians irradians

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2009
One-year-old bay scallops, Argopecten irradians irradians (58 ± 2 mm, 22 ± 1 g live weight) were exposed to four replicated photoperiod treatments (24D, 8L:16D, 16L:8D, and 24L where D = dark hours, L = light hours) in order to measure the effect on gonad weight and maturation during the conditioning process.

An inhibitor κB homologue from bay scallop Argopecten irradians

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2010
IkappaB is an important member of NF-kappaB pathway in the innate immune system. In the present study, the full-length cDNA sequence encoding IkappaB protein (designated AiIkappaB) was isolated from bay scallop Argopecten irradians. The complete sequence of AiIkappaB cDNA containing a 5' untranslated region (UTR) of 237 bp, a 3' UTR of 1023 bp with a ...

AMPK-mediated regulation of cardiac energy metabolism: Implications for thermotolerance in Argopecten irradians irradians

Gene
AMPK is a key regulator of metabolism in eukaryotes across various pathways related to energy regulation. Although extensive investigations of AMPK have been conducted in mammals and some model organisms, research on AMPK in scallops is comparatively limited.

Toxicity of Un-ionized Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nitrate to Juvenile Bay Scallops, Argopecten irradians irradians

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2007
Juvenile bay scallops (7.2-26.4 mm) were exposed for 72 h to different concentrations of un-ionized ammonia, nitrite, or nitrate. Using the Trimmed Spearman Karber method, 50% lethal concentrations (LC(50)) and 95% confidence limits were calculated individually for each.

Bioconversion of 13C-labeled microalgal phytosterols to cholesterol by the Northern Bay scallop, Argopecten irradians irradians

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2016
Bivalve mollusks lack de novo cholesterol biosynthesis capabilities and therefore rely upon dietary sources of sterols for rapid growth. Microalgae that constitute the main source of nutrition for suspension-feeding bivalves contain a diverse array of phytosterols, in most cases lacking cholesterol.

Overview of Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) Landings

1989
Bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) have been harvested along the Atlantic coast of North America since colonial times. Settlers on Cape Cod picked them up by hand at low tide (Belding 1910). In North Carolina also, shipping to northern markets in New York and Boston began as early as 1870 (Chestnut 1951).

Effects of environmental oxygen deficiency on embryos and larvae of bay scallop,Argopecten irradians irradians

Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 1995
The experimental results showed that: 1) The embryonic development of bay scallop is inhibited at a dissolved oxygen range of 1.38–3.64×10−3 at 23°C, and completely blocked below the lower limit. 2) The tolerance of larvae to anoxia increased with larval sizes and was related to their oxygen debt.
