Panoramic spatial vision in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians. [PDF]
We have a growing understanding of the light-sensing organs and light-influenced behaviours of animals with distributed visual systems, but we have yet to learn how these animals convert visual input into behavioural output. It has been suggested they consolidate visual information early in their sensory-motor pathways, resulting ...

Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals PC4 as the Candidate Gene for Thermal Tolerance in Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians irradians) [PDF]
The increasing sea temperature caused by global warming has resulted in severe mortalities in maricultural scallops. Therefore, improving thermal tolerance has become an active research area in the scallop farming industry.

Optimizing Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) Product Quality: Moderate Freezing as an Effective Strategy for Improving Adductor Muscle Gel Properties [PDF]
The bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) adductor is an attractive raw material for the production of surimi-like products. The gelling properties of raw materials directly affect the quality of surimi-like products.

Selection of a carotenoid-rich scallop strain, QN Orange, from the inter-specific hybrids between the bay scallop and the Peruvian scallop [PDF]
Abstract In our previous study, we reported the selection of ‘Bohai Red’, a new scallop strain with improved performance in growth from the hybrids between the bay scallop and the Peruvian scallop. In this study, we selected another new strain, the ‘QN Orange’ scallop, with orange adductor muscles, from the same hybrid cohort as the origin of ‘Bohai ...

SNP identification by transcriptome sequencing and candidate gene-based association analysis for heat tolerance in the bay scallop Argopecten irradians. [PDF]
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

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