(1) Background: The Quaternary river bank deposits of the European North of Russia contain several mollusk fossils that can give important past-climate information which is relevant to understand the evolution of climate in the Holocene period and ...

Accumulation of bacteriophage T4 by bivalves Unio pictorum and Anodonta cygnea in model experiments [PDF]
Bivalve mollusks are filter feeders that accumulate various particles suspended in water, including viruses. Shellfish also accumulate bacteriophages, but, unfortunately, there is little information about this, despite the fact that these organisms make ...

Evolution and diversity of alpha-carbonic anhydrases in the mantle of the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) [PDF]
The α-carbonic anhydrases (α-CAs) are a large and ancient group of metazoan-specific enzymes. They generate bicarbonate from metabolic carbon dioxide and through calcium carbonate crystal formation play a key role in the regulation of mineralized ...

Optimal designs of mollusk shells from bivalves to snails [PDF]
AbstractBivalve, ammonite and snail shells are described by a small number of geometrical parameters. Raup noted that the vast majority of theoretically possible shell forms do not occur in nature. The constraint factors that regulate the biased distribution of natural form have long since been an open problem in evolution.
