Structure, Evolution, and Mitochondrial Genome Analysis of Mussel Species (Bivalvia, Mytilidae). [PDF]
Based on the nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of specimens taken from two mussel species (Arcuatula senhousia and Mytilus coruscus), an investigation was performed by means of the complex approaches of the genomics, molecular phylogenetics, and evolutionary genetics. The mitogenome structure of studied mussels, like in many

The macrozoobenthic community of the Santa Gilla lagoon (southern Sardinia, Italy) [PDF]
1 - Macrozoobenthos is one of the most significant communities of hydrobionts for assessing the ecological state of a water body. In spite of its importance, only few data concerning the macrobenthic community of Santa Gilla lagoon are available; 2 ...

Sequencing Ultraconserved Elements (UCEs) for Marine Population Genomics: A Proof-of-Concept Using a Deep-Sea Mussel Species. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Ultraconserved elements (UCEs) have emerged as a powerful tool for resolving deep evolutionary relationships due to their low DNA quality requirements and broad taxonomic applicability. While their utility for intraspecific and shallow‐divergence studies is growing, only a few studies have explored their performance in marine taxa, some of ...

Potential invasion of the Atlantic coast of South America by Semimytilus algosus (Gould, 1850) [PDF]
The mytilid Semimytilus algosus (Gould, 1850) was collected from a fishing vessel after an in-water hull cleaning operation at Nuevo Gulf, north Patagonia, Argentina.

Sequence-Based Analysis of Thermal Adaptation and Protein Energy Landscapes in an Invasive Blue Mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis). [PDF]
Adaptive responses to thermal stress in poikilotherms plays an important role in determining competitive ability and species distributions. Amino acid substitutions that affect protein stability and modify the thermal optima of orthologous proteins may ...
