Sedimentology and geochemistry of tufa and their relation to hydrochemistry of springs: An example of Abgarm Tufa of Kalat- east of Kopet- Dagh basin [PDF]
Tufa is the non- marine carbonates that formed from cold to low temperature freshwater at low depth and low energy flow conditions. Abgarm’s tufa is a typical kind of these deposits.

Gastropods are among the most diverse animals. Gastropod mucus contains several glycoproteins and peptides that vary by species and habitat. Some bioactive peptides from gastropod mucus were identified only in a few species. Therefore, using biochemical,

Phenotypic Plasticity and the Endless Forms of Freshwater Gastropod Shells
Freshwater gastropod shells display a striking amount of variation. Shell characters are the foundation of most freshwater gastropod taxonomy and the basis for identifying most species. However, intraspecific shell variation is common, and the mechanisms

Chemoreception is one of the most important senses and it plays a key role in the survival and adaptation of animals to their environments. Many gastropods, such as Rapana venosa and Neptunea cumingii, have emerged as economically important shellfish ...

A Phylogenomic Backbone for Gastropod Molluscs
AbstractGastropods have survived several mass extinctions during their evolutionary history resulting in extraordinary diversity in morphology, ecology, and developmental modes, which complicate the reconstruction of a robust phylogeny. Currently, gastropods are divided into six subclasses: Caenogastropoda, Heterobranchia, Neomphaliones, Neritimorpha ...
