Physiological Impacts of a Newly Discovered Trematode Parasite on Its Host, the Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionParasites 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 ...

Effect of the Algaecide Palmitoleic Acid on the Immune Function of the Bay Scallop Argopecten irradians [PDF]
Molecules, 2016 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.

Marine Toxin Okadaic Acid Affects the Immune Function of Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) [PDF]
Molecules, 2016 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.

Draft genomes of two Atlantic bay scallop subspecies Argopecten irradians irradians and A. i. concentricus. [PDF]
Sci Data, 2020 AbstractThe two subspecies of Atlantic bay scallop (Argopecten irradians), A. i. irradians and A. i. concentricus, are economically important aquacultural species in northern and southern China. Here, we performed the whole-genome sequencing, assembly, and gene annotation and produced draft genomes for both subspecies.

SNP identification by transcriptome sequencing and candidate gene-based association analysis for heat tolerance in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The northern bay scallop Argopecten irradians irradians (Lamarck) and the southern bay scallop Argopecten irradians concentricus (Say) were introduced into China in the 1980s and 1990s, and are now major aquaculture molluscs in China. Here, we report the

Genetic linkage map of bay scallop, Argopecten irradians irradians (Lamarck 1819)
Aquaculture Research, 2007 The bay scallop (Argopecten irradians irradians Lamarck 1819) has become one of the most important aquaculture species in China. Genetic improvement of cultured bay scallop can benefit greatly from a better understanding of its genome. In this study, we developed amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) and simple sequence repeat markers from ...
