Pleistocene malacofauna of the Požarevac Danube area (NE Serbia) [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2007 The results of recent analyses of loess samples from the localities: Ćirikovac, Klenovnik, Novi Kostolac, Zatonje and Kisiljevo, confirm the idea that malacological associations identify biotope characteristics.

A Phylogenomic Backbone for Gastropod Molluscs
Systematic Biology, 2022 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 ...

Sialic acids in gastropods [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2001 The occurrence of N‐acetylneuraminic acid and N‐glycolylneuraminic acid residues in preparations of the slug Arion lusitanicus (Gastropoda) was determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate electrophoresis of the proteins followed by lectin blots stained with the sialic acid specific lectin from Maackia amurensis, by the sensitivity of this binding to ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The fluid nature of the ocean, combined with planktonic dispersal of marine larvae, lowers physical barriers to gene flow. However, divergence can still occur despite gene flow if strong selection acts on populations occupying different ecological niches.

The evolution of male and female reproductive traits in simultaneously hermaphroditic terrestrial gastropods [PDF]
, 2007 Our understanding of postcopulatory sexual selection forcing reproductive trait evolution continues to be illuminated by comparative studies. Inter- as well as intraspecific comparisons offer the opportunity to study the long-lasting processes of ...

Trait compensation in marine gastropods: shell shape, avoidance behavior, and susceptibility to predation [PDF]
, 2004 Many organisms have evolved morphological and behavioral traits that reduce their susceptibility to predation. However, few studies have explicitly investigated the relationships between defensive traits and susceptibility. Here we demonstrate a negative

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Nematodes and bacteria are prevalent in soil ecosystems, and some have evolved symbiotic relationships. In some cases, symbionts carry out highly specialized functions: a prime example being entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), which vector bacteria ...
