In vitro respiration rates of the Mytilidae Aulacomya atra and Mytilus chilensis from the fjord Comau, Chile, 2012

, 2012
Respiration rates of Aulacomya atra and Mytilus chilensis were measured in vitro. Specimens covering the entire size range were sampled from different sides in the fjord Comau and cleaned from the fouling community. Mussels were sampled in the intertidal

Identification of immune-related SNPs in the transcriptome of Mytilus chilensis through high-throughput sequencing

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2013
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified in coding regions represent a useful tool for understanding the immune response against pathogens and stressful environmental conditions. In this study, a SNPs database was generated from transcripts involved in the innate immune response of the mussel Mytilus chilensis. The SNPs were identified through

The myostatin gene of Mytilus chilensis evidences a high level of polymorphism and ubiquitous transcript expression

Gene, 2014
Myostatin (MSTN) is a protein of the Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily and plays a crucial role in muscular development for higher vertebrates. However, its biological function in marine invertebrates remains undiscovered. This study characterizes the full-length sequence of the Mytilus chilensis myostatin gene (Mc-MSTN).

Marine trophic architecture and hidden ecological connections in the Strait of Magellan: keystone species and ecosystem resilience

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
Understanding the ecological implications of species coexistence is central to biodiversity studies and to identify environmental and anthropogenic drivers of ecosystem dynamics, where ecological network analysis offers valuable insights. This study examines the complexity, structure, and potential responses to disturbances of the Strait of Magellan's ...

Bacterial Microbiome Composition and Functional Potentials Across Digestive Regions of Wild New Zealand Abalone (Haliotis iris)

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abalone are valuable commercial marine gastropods, supporting both aquaculture and fishery markets. An important ecological aspect of their survival and physiological performance in a given habitat is a complex and balanced symbiotic relationship with microbes in their digestive system.

Effect of temperature on the culture of larvae of the bivalve Mytilus chilensis originated from broodstocks from different latitudes in a controlled environment

Ciencias Marinas, 2012
D-veliger larvae from Mytilus chilensis broodstocks from natural banks of Punta Arenas and Chiloé (Chile) were grown at 9 ± 0.5 ºC and 15 ± 0.5 ºC to compare results under two culture temperatures.

Selective Feeding by a Predatory Sea Star Across a Depth Gradient in Northern Patagonia, Chile

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Sea stars often function as keystone predators in food webs of intertidal and subtidal communities, especially in temperate and sub-polar regions. In South America the sea star Cosmasterias lurida is distributed along both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
