QUANTITATIVE KARYOTYPE OF DIPLODON CHILENSIS (GRAY 1828) (BIVALVIA:HYRIIDAE)
The karyotype of a freshwater population of Diplodon chilensis located in La Poza area of the Villarrica Lake (39o18'S; 72o05'W), Southern Chile, was studied. The chromosomes were obtained by squash of cleaving embryos, previously treated with colchicine and fixed in ethanol-acetic acid 3:1 at 4oC and stained using the Feulgen reaction.

Microestructura y polimorfismo en valvas recientes de Diplodon chilensis patagonicus (dOrbigny 1835) [PDF]
Gracias a su potencial como registro ambiental, las valvas del molusco Diplodon han despertado recientemente el interes de la comunidad cientifca. En este trabajo, por medio de microscopia electronica de barrido (SEM) y espectroscopia Raman se investigo la microestructura y el polimorfsmo en valvas recientes de Diplodon chilensis patagonicus.

Caracterización metabólica de Diplodon chilensis (Gray, 1828) (Bivalvia: Hyriidae) expuesto a anoxia experimental [PDF]
Diplodon chilensis es un bivalvo dulceacuicola que habita desde el norte de Chile hasta Tierra del Fuego, posee una alta capacidad de filtracion y gran tolerancia a ambientes hipoxicos. Por esta razon, el objetivo de este estudio fue caracterizar por primera vez el metabolismo anaerobico de D.

We investigated the accumulation and toxicity of microcystin-LR (MCLR) in the digestive gland of the freshwater clam Diplodon chilensis patagonicus. Treated clams were fed with a toxic strain of Microcystis aeruginosa (NPJB1) during 6 weeks and control clams received the non-toxic strain NPDC1. Filtration rate was estimated for both groups.
