Observations on the Ligament of Mytilus edulis [PDF]
ABSTRACT The ligament of Mytilus edulis is situated between the valves of the shell immediately below the dorsal margin and may be divided into two main layers, the inner and the outer, the principal features of which appear to correspond with those of other bivalves.

Stylonichia mytilus and the Lunar Periods [PDF]
DURING a recent investigation at the University Botany School, Cambridge, of the association of ciliate protozoa and bacteria in a chalk stream, Styl nichia mytilus in common with other ciliate protozoa exhibited a series of ‘pulses’, or maximum waves when it spread down the stream, and minimum phases when it could be found only in the upper reaches ...

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,

Screening of ESTs from Mytilus for the detection of SSR markers in Mytilus californianus
AbstractA set of expressed sequence tag‐simple sequence repeat (EST‐SSR) markers for the genus Mytilus was developed through bioinformatic mining of the GenBank public database. A total of 33 782 EST sequences from GenBank were downloaded and screened for di‐, tri‐ and tetranucleotide, with 1274 EST containing SSR markers.

Effect of atorvastatin on the xenobioitic detoxification of blue mussels, Mytilus edulis
Increasing concentration of biologically active pharmaceutical compounds can affect marine organisms. The bioavailability and environmental stability of these compounds make them potential threat to these organisms, specially the sessile organisms.
