Effects of intensive scallop mariculture on macrobenthic assemblages in Sishili Bay, the northern Yellow Sea of China [PDF]
To elucidate the effects of scallop mariculture on the macrobenthic community in a moderate energy system, bimonthly samples from four transects along a distance gradient in Sishili Bay, the northern Yellow Sea of China, were investigated. Differences in

Climate change is known to affect all levels of biology, setting at risk ecological balance. Among other organisms' groups, aquatic inhabitants, and particularly bivalves, are expected to be influenced to a greater extent owing to their inability to move to more mild temperatures.

Convergent and parallel evolution in life habit of the scallops (Bivalvia: Pectinidae) [PDF]
We employed a phylogenetic framework to identify patterns of life habit evolution in the marine bivalve family Pectinidae. Specifically, we examined the number of independent origins of each life habit and distinguished between convergent and parallel ...

This work highlighted the impact of dry concentrations (0, 1, 2, and 4 g/kg diet) of the marine diatom species Skeletonema costatum (SK0%, SK0.1%, SK0.2%, and SK0.4%, respectively) as an aquafeed additive on the postlarvae of Pacific whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). During an 8‐week feeding trial, the impact of S.

Molluscan antimicrobial peptides, a review from activity-based evidences to computer-assisted sequences [PDF]
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) represent the most universal immune effectors. Molluscs constitute the second largest animal phylum, after Arthropods, in term of number of species. Only a negligible number has been investigated regarding AMPs.

The reproductive cycle of Larkinia grandis (Broderip and G.B. Sowerby I, 1829) from the NW Mexican Pacific was analyzed in relation to environmental variables, condition index (CI), and biochemical composition of different tissues. A total of 960 clams (80/month; 44.5–142.0 mm, shell height) were collected from the El Cohui estuary in the Navachiste ...

Paramyosin (PM) is a structural protein in invertebrates, playing an important role in maintaining the texture of muscle. Although PM has been identified as a major allergen, its characteristics have not been well investigated. In this study, PM with a molecular mass of 97 kDa was purified to homogeneity from Haliotis discus hannai using ammonium ...
