Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...

Molecular phylogeny of pearl oysters and their relatives (Mollusca, Bivalvia, Pterioidea) [PDF]
Background: The superfamily Pterioidea is a morphologically and ecologically diverse lineage of epifaunal marine bivalves distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical continental shelf regions.

Mollusc culture if properly managed, may help decrease capture fisheries over-exploitation in Vietnam, and possibly become an alternative income for local fishermen. The definition and characterization of zones suitable for aquaculture is pivotal for its

Evaluation of the Population Genetic Structure of Anadara tuberculosa (Mollusca, Bivalvia) in the Panamanian Pacific [PDF]
Our study analyzed the population genetics of Anadara tuberculosa (concha negra) in five Panamanian Pacific mangrove areas using the mitochondrial COI gene. We found high haplotypic diversity and low nucleotide diversity, a pattern that suggests a recent demographic expansion, which was supported by our neutrality tests and a star‐shaped haplotype ...

Bay Scallops, Argopecten irradians, in the Northwestern Gulf of Mexico (Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas) [PDF]
There is no evidence that a commercial bay scallop fishery exists anywhere in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. No data concerning scallop abundance or distribution was found for Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana.

Continuous high‐temperature culture altered the structure of gill tissue, enhanced antioxidant capacity, and promoted apoptosis C. fuscus. In response, the organism mitigates extensive apoptosis and strengthens its repair capacity by regulating immune and energy metabolism pathways.

The Status of Eelgrass, Zostera marina, as Bay Scallop Habitat: Consequences for the Fishery in the Western Atlantic [PDF]
Zostera marina is a member of a widely distributed genus of seagrasses, all commonly called eelgrass. The reported distribution of eelgrass along the east coast of the United States is from Maine to North Carolina. Eelgrass inhabits a variety of coastal

Unusual conservation of mitochondrial gene order in Crassostrea oysters: evidence for recent speciation in Asia [PDF]
Background Oysters are morphologically plastic and hence difficult subjects for taxonomic and evolutionary studies. It is long been suspected, based on the extraordinary species diversity observed, that Asia Pacific is the epicenter of oyster

In the present study, bay scallop antioxidant response to acute exposure to the benzo[α]pyrene (BaP; a type of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon) was investigated. Scallops were exposed to doses of 0.5 and 1.0 µg/L (low-dose group) and 10 and 50 µg/L (high-
