The effect of temperature on herbivory by the omnivorous ectotherm snail Lymnaea stagnalis
Rising temperatures likely affect the trophic interactions in temperate regions as global warming progresses. An open question is how a temperature rise may affect consumer pressure and plant abundance in shallow aquatic ecosystems, where most consumers ...

ABSTRACT Globally, rivers receive a diverse range of chemicals, including metals, pesticides, persistent organic pollutants, petrochemicals, human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal care products. However, the extent to which these different chemical groups affect riverine invertebrate communities is not well defined.

Molluscs have evolved the capacity to fabricate a wide variety of shells over their 540+ million-year history. While modern sequencing and proteomic technologies continue to expand the catalog of molluscan shell-forming proteins, a complete functional ...

Karyotypes of two European species of the genus Lymnaea with disputable taxonomic status (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Lymnaeidae) [PDF]
Karyotypes of Lymnaea corvus and L. occulta are studied for the first time and compared to the original data on Ukrainian populations of L. palustris and L. stagnalis.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract A substantial proportion of environmental variation is stochastic. While environmental stochasticity plays a key role in the evolution of phenotypic strategies, its short‐term effects within generations remain poorly understood. These short‐term organismal responses are

Do snails Lymnaea stagnalis have phenoloxidase activity in hemolymph? [PDF]
Hemocytes and hemolymph of snail Lymnaea stagnalis were analyzed to detect phenoloxidase (PO) activity. No PO activity was found in the hemocytes of snails.

Cryptic Reproductive Costs of Heatwaves for Animal Populations
Heatwaves are among the most serious threats posed by climate change to biodiversity. They are known to cause mass mortality events in animals and to strongly affect animal reproduction. The impact of heatwaves on reproduction is crucial because it occurs across all stages, from gamete formation to offspring number and development and beyond.

Serotonin receptor cDNA cloned from Lymnaea stagnalis. [PDF]
Serotonin (5-HT) is a major neurotransmitter that influences various behaviors, neuronal plasticity, learning, and memory in molluscs. Although the physiology of 5-HT transmission in molluscs is well studied, little is known about the pharmacology and diversity of the 5-HT receptor system.

We find that higher snail richness correlated with increased overall and generalist trematode infections, while specialist infections showed a similar but nonsignificant trend. The study also highlighted potential host‐switching events and the impact of long‐term sampling on parasite communities, emphasizing the need for continued monitoring of host ...
