Changes in enzymatic activity during early development of bay scallops Argopecten irradians and sea scallops Placopecten magellanicus [PDF]
Poor growth and survival of scallops is often reported during early developmental stages. Stage- and species-specific dietary requirements have been identified, but the mechanisms responsible for these differences remain largely unknown. Dietary success depends on food bio- chemical properties, digestive and/or assimilative capacity, as well as the ...

Update of the risk assessment on dioxins and dioxin‐like PCBs in feed and food
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2018 risk assessment on polychlorinated dibenzo‐p‐dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin‐like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL‐PCBs) in feed and food, based on the 2022 WHO Toxic Equivalency Factors (WHO2022‐TEFs).

Connectivity of the bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts, U.S.A. [PDF]
AbstractThe harvest of bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) from Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts, U.S.A. undergoes large interannual fluctuations, varying by more than an order of magnitude in successive years. To investigate the extent to which these fluctuations may be due to yearly variations in the transport of scallop larvae from spawning areas to ...

Microbialite Diversity and Ocean Redox Geochemistry of the Late Tonian Callison Lake Formation
ABSTRACT Microbialites provide a unique insight into ancient microbial processes and environments, but trends in the diversity of unlaminated microbialites remain poorly understood. The ca. 745 Ma Callison Lake Formation in the Yukon (northwest Canada) features a range of microbialites which are diverse at both the mesoscale and microscale.

This study investigates the morphology and osteo‐histology of the wing skeleton of the world's first gliding reptiles, showing how it differs from those of extant gliding lizards, yet is also convergently similar. These findings pave the way for future biomechanical studies on the gliding locomotion of these emblematic fossil animals. Abstract The Late

Development of a rapid and efficient method for non-lethal DNA sampling and genotyping in scallops. [PDF]
Non-lethal DNA sampling has long appealed to researchers studying population and conservation genetics, as it does not necessitate removing individuals permanently from their natural environment or destroying valuable samples.

Abstract Introduction The flat oyster Ostrea angasi previously formed extensive reefs throughout temperate regions of Australia. These reefs were overharvested and destroyed after European colonization and have been functionally extinct for >150 years. While large‐scale subtidal O.

Settlement and metamorphosis are key developmental hurdles in marine mollusk aquaculture. Environmental signals (such as biofilms, algae, and signals from conspecifics) and biochemical pathways (including nitric oxide, thyroid hormones, catecholamines, and GABA) regulate the transition of larvae into benthic juveniles. Combining ecological observations

Catch and environmental performance of modified scallop dredge designs were assessed. Skid belly bags increased scallop catch by 14%–19% and reduced gear wear. N‐Virodredge reduced catch of scallop juveniles and sorting time. Gear footprint on the seabed was reduced by 50% for skid belly bags. N‐Virodredge cut fuel use by 30%, reducing carbon emissions
