Transcriptional Profiling of Populations in the Clam Ruditapes decussatus Suggests Genetically Determined Differentiation in Gene Expression along Parallel Temperature Gradients and between Races of the Atlantic Ocean and West Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesFishes, 2023
Ongoing ocean warming due to climate change poses new challenges for marine life and its exploitation. We have used transcriptomics to find genetically based responses to increased temperature in natural populations of the marine clam Ruditapes ...

Step in Time: Biomineralisation of Bivalve’s Shell

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Biomineralisation process which is the induction of the precipitation of a mineral by an organism, generates hard tissues such as bones, teeth, otoliths and shells. Biomineralisation rate is not constant over time.

THE MOLECULAR APPROACH REVEALS THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG VENUS CLAMS ( Meretrix spp.) COMMUNITY IN MALAYSIA

open access: yesBiotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology, 2022
Molecular study is important to detect variations and similarities among species from the same genus, in case if they do not encompass any morphological or physiological differences. The study was conducted to differentiate among species of Meretrix spp.

Bycatch and discard survival rate in a small-scale bivalve dredge fishery along the Algarve coast (southern Portugal) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Although the bivalve dredge used on the Algarve coast (southern Portugal) is highly selective for the target species, in some periods of the year the bycatch can exceed the catch of the commercial species. The present study aimed to quantify the bycatch
