Short-term effects of an unprecedented heatwave on intertidal bivalve populations: fisheries management surveys provide an incomplete picture

Frontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionCoastal marine ecosystems, are particularly susceptible to climate change. One such threat is atmospheric heatwaves, which are predicted to increase in frequency, duration, and intensity.

HSP expression in bivalves

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2008
One of the molecular responses which mostly contribute to the physiological plasticity of bivalves is the heat shock response mediated by heat shock proteins (HSP). Variations of HSP response were observed under environmental conditions, correlated with differences in environmental temperature and degree of heterogeneity across geographic thermal ...

Temporal tracking of mineralization and transcriptional developments of shell formation during the early life history of pearl oyster Pinctada maxima [PDF]

, 2011
Molluscan larval ontogeny is a highly conserved process comprising three principal developmental stages. A characteristic unique to each of these stages is shell design, termed prodissoconch I, prodissoconch II and dissoconch.

Multiple Trophic Levels in Soft-Bottom Communities

, 1985
In order to assess the general applicability of recent field experiments with predatory infauna, we searched the literature and found 48 well-documented cases of infaunal consumption by such predators.

Multimedia distributions, bioaccumulation, and trophic transfer of microcystins in the Geum River Estuary, Korea: Application of compound-specific isotope analysis of amino acids [PDF]

, 2019
To determine distributions, bioaccumulation, and trophic transfer of freshwater cyanobacterial toxins such as microcystins (MCs), surface water, suspended solids, sediments, and coastal organisms were collected from seven stations in inner and outer ...

Petrologic evidence for earliest Miocene tectonic mobility on eastern Taranaki Basin margin [PDF]

, 2006
At Gibsons Beach on the west coast of central North Island, the earliest Miocene (Waitakian) Otorohanga Limestone, the top-most formation in the Te Kuiti Group, is unconformably overlain on an undulating, locally channelised erosion surface by the Early ...

Chasing Pinna nobilis Survivors: Current Status in Spanish Open Coastal Waters

Animals
The largest and endemic bivalve of the Mediterranean Sea, Pinna nobilis, is on the brink of extinction after a mass mortality event (MME) that has affected its populations since autumn 2016.

Unravelling the Chemical Nature of the Spawning-Inducing Pheromone (SIP) in the Pacific Oyster (Magallana gigas)

Fishes
In external fertilisation, spawning synchrony is often mediated by pheromones. However, their chemical nature is rarely well-established; this is particularly true for bivalves. This study used an electrophysiological technique—the electro-osphradiogram (
