Morphology and Genetic Structure Profile of Farmed Snails Cornu aspersum aspersum and Cornu aspersum maximum in Greece

open access: yesSustainability, 2022
The subspecies of the species Cornu aspersum, C. a. aspersum, and C. a. maximum are the dominant farmed species in Greece. The morphological and molecular polymorphism of the two aforementioned subspecies has not been studied in depth. In this study, the polymorphism of snails of the two subspecies derived from seven snail farms throughout Greece was ...

Identification and characterisation of anti - Pseudomonas aeruginosa proteins in mucus of the brown garden snail, Cornu aspersum [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Biomedical Science, 2019
Background Novel antimicrobial treatments are urgently needed. Previous work has shown that the mucus of the brown garden snail (Cornu aspersum) has antimicrobial properties, in particular against type culture collection strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Taste aversion learning in the snail Cornu aspersum

Animal Cognition, 2023
The present study was conducted to provide evidence of conditioned taste aversion learning (CTA) in the snail Cornu aspersum, using quinidine as the aversive stimulus in a procedure of Pavlovian Conditioning of Tentacle Lowering. Subjects were split into two groups: paired and unpaired.

Primacy and recency in snails (Cornu aspersum).

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 2023
Pavlovian conditioning has been proven to be useful for the study of associative learning and animal cognition. This procedure can be used to observe certain memory phenomena. The appetitive conditioning of several neutral stimuli can result in higher response rates, and therefore a better memory, for the first and last stimuli of the series.

The reproductive response of Cornu aspersum to different hibernation conditions

Molluscan Research, 2022
This study was conducted between February and May 2019 on mature Cornu aspersum in the Black Sea region, Turkey to investigate the effects of different hibernation situations on reproductive responses. Three snail groups were studied: NH (natural hibernation), ASH (artificial short hibernation) and ALH (artificial long hibernation).

Cornu aspersum (common garden snail).

2021
Abstract C. aspersum, the common garden snail, is represented by several forms that are highly differentiated genetically. Only one lineage, the western one, is considered to be invasive in regions where it has been introduced recently (since the sixteenth century) either accidentally or intentionally (e.g.

Cold hardiness abilities vary with the size of the land snail Cornu aspersum

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2004
The land snail Cornu aspersum (syn. Helix aspersa) living in Brittany (France) can be considered partially freezing tolerant as it possesses a low ability to supercool and a limited capacity to bear freezing of its body tissues. The absence of a marked cold hardiness strategy permits the emphasis of the role of parameters such as individual size or ...

Coordinating associative and ecological accounts of learning in the garden snail Cornu aspersum

Behavioural Processes, 2017
Pavlovian conditioning of tentacle lowering in the snail, Cornu aspersum, as an instance of associative learning, has proven effective to show evidence of paradigmatic associative phenomena (e.g., blocking) explained by current models of conditioning. Nevertheless, the available literature questions the biological function of the conditioned response ...

Renewal of conditioned tentacle lowering by circadian contextual cues in snails Cornu aspersum

Behavioural Processes, 2020
Previous experiments using tentacle lowering conditioning in terrestrial snails Cornu aspersum have shown extinction and recovery of the conditioned response (CR) as a consequence of both inserting a delay between the extinction and test (spontaneous recovery) and of re-exposing the animal to the unconditioned stimulus after extinction (reinstatement).
