Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Responses of Argopecten irradians concentricus to Thermal Stresses

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The bay scallop southern subspecies, Argopecten irradians concentricus, which is widely cultured in southern China waters, is a eurythermal animal that is more adaptive to high-temperature waters but less tolerant to low-temperature waters.

Systematic evaluation of scallop (Argopecten irradians) SoxH reveals its crucial role in spermiogenesis with limited evidence for sex determination [PDF]

Communications Biology
The transcription factor Sox30 (SoxH), a conserved regulator of vertebrate spermatogenesis, remains poorly characterized in mollusks, despite emerging evidence of its potential role in sex regulation.

Effect of the Algicide Thiazolidinedione 49 on Immune Responses of Bay Scallop Argopecten Irradians [PDF]

Molecules, 2019
The thiazolidinedione 49 (TD49) is an effective algaecide against harmful algae; however, its potential effects on the immune function of the edible bay scallop are unclear.

Extensive Fouling of Eelgrass (<i>Zostera marina</i> L.) Reproductive Shoots by Invasive Tunicates-A Potential Threat to Meadow Reproductive Output? [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Here, we document through field observations and photographs, the extensive fouling of seed‐bearing Z. marina reproductive shoots by invasive tunicates in a Cape Cod meadow during late spring/early summer 2025. Such fouling may block seed release and/or inhibit dispersal which may reduce meadow reproductive success.

The Molecular Basis of Growth Control in Guanine Crystals. [PDF]

Small
Precise control over guanine crystal morphology is achieved through biologically inspired, facet‐selective interactions. Simple synthetic polymers tune growth from prisms to needles and plate‐like biogenic forms by modulating multivalency, polarity, and functional‐group identity.

Physiological Effects of Suspended Solids on Venerupis philippinarum and Argopecten irradians

Fishes
Suspended solids are small particles transported in the water column, which can damage marine ecosystems and impair the health of aquatic organisms. This study evaluated the physiological responses of clams (Venerupis philippinarum) and Atlantic Bay ...

Efficient induction of autotriploid bay scallop Argopecten irradians irradians with growth advantages in larvae and adults

Aquaculture Reports
Polyploid breeding is an effective tool for genetic improvement in aquatic species, contributing significantly to the aquaculture industry. However, the efficient polyploid induction methods have been lacking for the bay scallop (Argopecten irradians ...

A consensus microsatellite-based linkage map for the hermaphroditic bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) and its application in size-related QTL analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) is one of the most economically important aquaculture species in China. In this study, we constructed a consensus microsatellite-based genetic linkage map with a mapping panel containing two hybrid backcross-like ...

A novel fibrinogen-related protein with two coiled-coil regions from Chlamys farreri functions as immune recognition molecule [PDF]

Comparative Immunology Reports
Fibrinogen-related proteins (FREPs) have been reported to exhibit extensive expansion with remarkable structural diversity in invertebrate genomes, particularly in mollusks, which execute multifaceted functions ranging from non-self recognition to clot ...

Effects of elevated temperature and carbon dioxide on the growth and survival of larvae and juveniles of three species of northwest Atlantic bivalves. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Rising CO(2) concentrations and water temperatures this century are likely to have transformative effects on many coastal marine organisms. Here, we compared the responses of two life history stages (larval, juvenile) of three species of calcifying ...
