Unusual conservation of mitochondrial gene order in Crassostrea oysters: evidence for recent speciation in Asia [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Oysters are morphologically plastic and hence difficult subjects for taxonomic and evolutionary studies. It is long been suspected, based on the extraordinary species diversity observed, that Asia Pacific is the epicenter of oyster speciation.

Introduction, establishment and expansion of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas in the Oosterschelde (SW Netherlands) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas was first introduced as an exotic species by oyster farmers in 1964 in the Oosterschelde estuary (SW Netherlands). The initial phase is not well documented but first natural spatfall was recorded in 1975.

A Comparison of Juvenile and Adult Sunflower Sea Star Transcriptomic Responses to Challenge With Sea Star Wasting Disease Tissue Homogenates. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Sunflower sea stars have been hard hit by sea star wasting disease (SSWD), losing over 5 billion individuals along their natural range from Alaska and Southern California. This work uses transcriptomics to investigate the immune response of adult and juvenile sunflower sea stars exposed to SSWD.

Geochemical fractionation of trace elements in ostreid and gastropod shells: A potential proxy for heavy metal pollution in Ghana’s coastal environment

open access: yesEstudios Geologicos
The content of trace elements from Crassostrea tulipa (Ostreidae, Bivalvia) from four localities (Pra Estuary, Densu Estuary, Kpone Beach, and Anyanui Creek) along the coast of Ghana has been used as a bioindicator of environmental pollution. The lowest
