An Assessment of the Biological Significance of a Visual Clutch Staging Scheme for Ovigerous Female American Lobster (Homarus americanus) [PDF]

Animals, 2023
Qualitative visual clutch staging is a useful tool for rapidly and non-invasively assessing the developmental stage of American lobster, Homarus americanus, embryos. While such a scheme has been used in fisheries monitoring strategies in Canada since the

Many Questions Remain Unanswered About the Role of Microbial Transmission in Epizootic Shell Disease in American Lobsters (Homarus americanus) [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Despite decades of research on lobster species’ biology, ecology, and microbiology, there are still unresolved questions about the microbial communities which associate in or on lobsters under healthy or diseased states, microbial acquisition, as well as

Seasonal patterns of mercury bioaccumulation in lobsters (Homarus americanus) from Maine [PDF]

Academia Biology
Mercury (Hg) pollutes marine ecosystems and accumulates in benthic species. This ecological case study investigated the temporal accumulation of Hg in American lobster (Homarus americanus; H. Milne Edwards, 1837) from coastal Maine (Casco Bay,

Carapace microbiota in American lobsters (Homarus americanus) associated with epizootic shell disease and the green gland [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Epizootic Shell Disease (ESD) has posed a great threat, both ecologically and economically, to the American lobster population of Long Island Sound since its emergence in the late 1990s.

Development, growth and metabolic effects in stage IV lobster (Homarus americanus) following chronic exposure to sediments spiked with commercial formulations of deltamethrin and permethrin [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Coastal and estuarine ecosystems are environments heavily influenced by natural and anthropogenic activities. Chemicals used for pest control in agriculture and aquaculture may accumulate in natural coastal environments. Pyrethroids are common pesticides

Long-read sequencing reveals the shell microbiome of apparently healthy American lobsters Homarus americanus from Atlantic Canada [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The shell microbial community of lobsters—a key factor in the development of epizootic shell disease (ESD)—is still insufficiently researched in Atlantic Canada and many knowledge gaps remain.

Neurotoxic non-protein amino acids in commercially harvested Lobsters (Homarus americanus H. Milne-Edwards) [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Cyanobacteria produce neurotoxic non-protein amino acids (NPAAs) that accumulate in ecosystems and food webs. American lobsters (Homarus americanus H. Milne-Edwards) are one of the most valuable seafood industries in Canada with exports valued at > $2 ...
