The effect of common surface waters contaminants, pesticide roundup and drug chlorpromazine, in the environmentally relevant exposures on the bivalve mollusk Unio tumidus [PDF]

, 2021
Bivalve mollusks represent the most recognized bioindicators of the surface water chemical pollution and climate changes. However, the specific responses of mollusk to certain xenobiotics are not well understood and examined mostly in the experimental ...

Monitoring the Environmental Quality of Marine Waters Through the Analysis of Biomineralization in Bivalve Shells [PDF]

, 2020
Bivalve shells, such as Mytilus, offer great potential as environmental proxies. Analysis of the biomineralization process with determination of elemental composition gives information about the quality of environment and reflects the possible safety ...

Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

The potential of high resolution palaeoclimate reconstruction from Arctica islandica [PDF]

, 2007
The potential of Arctica islandica, a long lived marine bivalve with a lifespan of over 300 years, to reconstruct a high resolution (sub-annual) climate record is explored in this thesis.

Mollusk communities differ between microenvironments within a shallow lake in the Pampean Region, Argentina

Ecología Austral, 2018
The aim of this study is to compare the faunistic mollusk composition at a local scale, in different sites within a shallow lake, and to evaluate the relation between abundance and richness of mollusks and the environmental variables.

Depth and season‐related variability in fatty acid composition and lipid nutritional quality indices of farmed Mytilus galloprovincialis

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Lipid quality is one of the most important indicators of the nutritional value of farmed mussels. In open‐coastal environments, factors such as cultivation depth and seasonal changes affect lipid dynamics, but their combined effects on lipid quality remain unclear.

Daily growth rates in shells of Arctica islandica: assessing sub-seasonal environmental controls on a long-lived bivalve mollusk [PDF]

, 2005
Shells of the extremely long-lived bivalve mollusk Arctica is-landica (Linnaeus 1767) provide century-long, multi-proxy records of inter-annual environmental variability in mid-dle- to high-latitude marine settings.

First Report on the Occurrence of Tetrodotoxins in Bivalve Mollusks in The Netherlands [PDF]

Toxins, 2018
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is traditionally associated with seafood from tropical regions, but recently TTX was detected in bivalve mollusks in more temperate European waters. In The Netherlands it was therefore decided to monitor TTX in shellfish harvested from Dutch production areas.

CardiacDP: An R package for rapid automated cardiac data processing, integrating autocorrelation, a genetic algorithm, and a tracking index

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Heart rate is a popular proxy of physiological responses, but the highly complex and variable cardiac data obtained from organisms such as marine invertebrates pose a major challenge to efficient and accurate data processing. To address this, we developed a novel, integrative algorithm for rapid and automated cardiac data processing.

Continental accumulation of fads2 copy numbers allows sticklebacks to thrive across a diversity of nutritional landscapes

Oikos, EarlyView.
Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...
