Hatcheries maintain high genetic variation but show shifts in genetic structure of progenies of five endangered riffleshell species (Epioblasma) (Bivalvia: Unionidae) of the eastern United States

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract We assessed genetic variation at mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear DNA microsatellites for progeny (i.e., juveniles produced at a hatchery) of five endangered Epioblasma species reared at three hatcheries in the eastern United States. The progeny of Epioblasma aureola, Epioblasma brevidens, Epioblasma obliquata and Epioblasma triquetra ...

Hic74, a novel alanine and glycine rich matrix protein related to nacreous layer formation in the mollusc Hyriopsis cumingii

Aquaculture and Fisheries, 2017
Organic matrix proteins play an important role in the biomineralization of mollusc shells. We have identified and characterized a novel matrix protein, namely hic74, isolated from the mantle of the freshwater mussel Hyriopsis cumingii.

Multiple paternity in the freshwater pearl mussel Hyriopsis cumingii (Lea, 1852) [PDF]

Journal of Molluscan Studies, 2011
Hyriopsis cumingii (Lea, 1852) is a freshwater mussel of major commercial importance for pearl culture in China. In this study, five polymorphic microsatellites from H. cumingii were identified and employed to investigate the occurrence and frequency of multiple paternity in 15 H. cumingii broods caught from Poyang Lake, China.

Identification and expression analysis of the MSP130-related-2 gene from Hyriopsis cumingii

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015
MSP130-related-2 is thought to play a role in bio-mineralization as revealed in Crassostrea gigas and sea urchins. In this study, an MSP130-related-2 gene was isolated from Hyriopsis cumingii (HcMSP130-related-2) and characterized for the first time. The HcMSP130-related-2 cDNA was 2307 bp in length and consisted of a 572-bp 5'-untranslated region (5 ...

Identification of CTNNB1 in the lined seahorse, Hippocampus erectus, and its function in innate immunity and cell proliferation

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 55, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract β‐Catenin (CTNNB) is a core downstream mediator in the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway, which plays a role in immune regulation and cell differentiation. In the present study, two CTNNB genes were identified by genomic analysis of Hippocampus erectus and named He‐CTNNB1 and He‐CTNNB2. He‐CTNNB1 was more conserved than He‐CTNNB2.

β‐Chitin and chitosan from waste shells of edible mollusks as a functional ingredient

Food Frontiers, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 46-72, January 2024.
This review explores the edible mollusk shell waste sources and its suitable extraction techniques, characterizations, and functional properties of β‐chitin and chitosan. Further, the genetic pathway of synthesizing mollusk chitin and chitosan was discussed.

Unraveling the Phylogenetic Relationships and Taxonomic Status of a Puzzling Freshwater Mussel Genus Inversidens (Bivalvia, Unionidae) through Multilocus Phylogeny and Mitochondrial Phylogenomics

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Accurate phylogenetic reconstructions are crucial for comprehending the evolutionary histories, reproductive traits, and ecological habits of organisms. The subfamily Gonideinae of freshwater mussels is currently thought to include eight tribes. However, due to inadequate taxon sampling and molecular data, the assignment of the freshwater mussel genus ...

Genotype-environment interactions on growth and inner shell color variation in Hyriopsis cumingii cultured in different iron-level substrates

Aquaculture Reports
Hyriopsis cumingii is a species that naturally inhabits substrates rich in various metal elements. Iron, essential for several biological processes, significantly influences the growth and development of bivalves. This study established nine full-sibling
