Winter Burial of Transplanted Bay Scallops

1989
During 1985, 1986, and 1987, extensive blooms of Aureococcus anophagefferens (“brown tides”) in eastern Long Island, New York waters decimated most of the commercially valuable stocks of bay scallops, Argopecten irradians irradians (Anonymous, 1985; Siddall, 1986).

Copper accumulation in the bay scallop,Argopecten irradians

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1983
Adults of the bay scallopArgopecten irradians were held in flowing seawater containing 5 or 10Μg Cu/kg at ambient temperature and salinity. After eight weeks, scallops contained up to 91 and 310Μg Cu/g dry weight, respectively, in the total soft parts. Copper uptake was linear over time.

An immune responsive multidomain galectin from bay scallop Argopectens irradians

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2010
Galectins are a family of beta-galactoside-binding lectins which play crucial roles in innate immunity of vertebrates and invertebrates. In the present study, the cDNA of a galectin with multiple carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs) was cloned from bay scallop Argopectens irradians (designated AiGal1) by expressed sequence tag (EST) and rapid ...

Yield trait improvement of bay scallops following complete diallel crosses between different scallop stocks

Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2014
This study describes the complete diallel hybridization between newly introduced bay scallop stock (W) from Canada and local commercial stock (D) grown under laboratory conditions, in China. Larval survival and growth during all life stages (larvae, spat, and adult) were compared among hybrid (DW, WD) and purebred (DD, WW) populations.

Introduction of the Peruvian scallop and its hybridization with the bay scallop in China

Aquaculture, 2011
This study describes the first introduction of the Peruvian scallop, Argopecten purpuratus (P), from Peru to China. Reciprocal hybridization was carried out between the newly introduced Peruvian scallops and the bay scallops. A. irradians irradians (I).

Selection of a new scallop strain, the Bohai Red, from the hybrid between the bay scallop and the Peruvian scallop

Aquaculture, 2017
Abstract In our previous studies, inter-specific hybrid F1 with significant heterosis in growth was produced by hybridizing the bay scallop, Argopecten irradians irradians with the Peruvian scallop, A. purpuratus. However, due to the hermaphroditic nature of the two Argopecten scallops, it is difficult to produce the hybrid seed at large scales.

Overview of Bay Scallop (Argopecten irradians) Landings

1989
Bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) have been harvested along the Atlantic coast of North America since colonial times. Settlers on Cape Cod picked them up by hand at low tide (Belding 1910). In North Carolina also, shipping to northern markets in New York and Boston began as early as 1870 (Chestnut 1951).

Incidental Occurrence of Bay Scallops in Texas Research Ponds

The Progressive Fish-Culturist, 1993
Abstract Bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) were discovered in 0.4- and 0.8-hectare earthen research ponds at the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Perry R. Bass Marine Fisheries Research Station near Palacios, Texas. These ponds were filled with unfiltered Matagorda Bay water during April 1990 and were drained on 19 September and 8 October 1990 ...

Factors influencing swimming in bay scallops, Argopectenirradians (Lamarck, 1819)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1985
Abstract Factors influencing the probability, distance, and direction of swimming in bay scallops ( Argopecten irradions Lamarck, 1819) were studied through a series of experimental releases in the field and in a 3-m tank. The probability of a scallop swimming was significantly influenced by the type of substratum on which it was released (sand vs.

Scallop culture and its supporting system in Mutsu bay

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 1991
Abstract Mutsu bay is one of the major scallop culture fields located at a northern part of Japan where fishermen got 520 thousand tons of scallop, being worth 11, 300 million yen (78 million dollars) in 1986. The fruitful result was brought after a few decade struggle to develop scallop culture techniques by the people concerned, and now, for ...
