Phenotypic evolution and hidden speciation in Candidula unifasciata ssp. (Helicellinae, Gastropoda) inferred by 16S variation and quantitative shell traits [PDF]
, 2006 In an effort to link quantitative morphometric information with molecular data on the population level, we have analysed 19 populations of the conchologically variable land snail Candidula unifasciata from across the species range for variation in ...

Health and sustainability: The nutritional value of snail meat
Croatian Journal of Food Science and TechnologyThe increasing popularity of snail meat prompts research of the nutritional benefits of consuming Helix aspersa maxima cultivated in Bulgaria. With a high protein content and remarkably low fat content, snail meat is well-suited for the inclusion in ...

Influence of heat treatment on amino acid composition of snails meat
Науковий вісник Львівського національного університету ветеринарної медицини та біотехнологій імені С.З. Ґжицького: Серія Ветеринарні науки, 2018 Amino acids are organic compounds that are the structural component of the protein. That is, protein is the main building material of the tissues of the body. It is needed for muscle mass growth and is indispensable in fat burning – all about amino acids,

Effect of cadmium on cytosine hydroxymethylation in gastropod hepatopancreas [PDF]
, 2017 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is an important, yet poorly understood epigenetic DNA modification, especially in invertebrates. Aberrant genome-wide 5hmC levels have been associated with cadmium (Cd) exposure in humans, but such information is lacking ...

Evidence for survival of Pleistocene climatic changes in Northern refugia by the land snail Trochoidea geyeri (Soós 1926) (Helicellinae, Stylommatophora) [PDF]
, 2003 The study of organisms with restricted dispersal abilities and presence in the fossil record is particularly adequate to understand the impact of climate changes on the distribution and genetic structure of species.

Habitat selection in terrestrial snails and its applications to heliciculture [PDF]
, 2006 Snails are employed as experimental animals in different scientific fields and their growth is a good biological indicator. Growth is mainly determined at a genetic level, although many factors biotic and abiotic may alter growth rates.
