Mytilus galloprovincialis as a smart micro-pump [PDF]

Biology Open, 2016
Hydrodynamic performance of the marine mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis, is studied with time-resolved particle image velocimetry. We evaluated inhalant flow, exhalant jet flow, suction performance and flow control capabilities of the mussels ...

Fatty acids composition of actinobacteria isolated from mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis of the Black Sea Odesa Bay [PDF]

The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2023
Analysis of the fatty acid composition of total cellular lipids is important chemotaxonomic characteristic that is used to identify microorganisms, in particular actinobacteria, with the help of fatty acid spectra libraries. Actinobacteria are well known

Polystyrene nanoplastics in the marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis.

Environmental Pollution, 2023
Concerns about plastic pollution and its toxicity towards animals and people are growing. Polystyrene (PS) is a plastic polymer highly produced in Europe for packaging purposes and building insulation amongst others. Whatever their source-illegal dumping, improper waste management, or a lack of treatment for the removal of plastic debris from ...

Complex interplays between limpets and alien species in South Africa: multispecies interactions, zonation and size effects

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Integrating observations and experiments, we address the progressive effects of three alien species, the mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis and Semimytilus patagonicus, and the barnacle Balanus glandula, on limpet species in South Africa. We describe four

Does selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) fluoxetine affects mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis? [PDF]

, 2013
Fluoxetine (FLX) the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in Prozac(®) is a widely prescribed psychoactive drug which ubiquitous occurrence in the aquatic environment is associated to a poor removal rate in waste-water treatment plant (WWTP) systems ...

Genome‐wide insights into introgression and its consequences for genome‐wide heterozygosity in the Mytilus species complex across Europe

Evolutionary Applications, 2020
The three mussel species comprising the Mytilus complex are widespread across Europe and readily hybridize when they occur in sympatry, resulting in a mosaic of populations with varying genomic backgrounds. Two of these species, M.

Phosphonolipids in the Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1998
One of the possible roles of phosphonolipids is that they have a contribution to the protection of cellular integrity and survival of aquatic organisms (mollusca, cnidaria) as these lipids are included at high percentages. The total lipids of the edible mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis (Mollusca, Bivalvia, Mytilidae) were found to constitute 1.27% of ...

The role of urbanisation in affecting Mytilus galloprovincialis

PLOS ONE, 2020
Urbanisation is considered as one of the most critical and widespread threats to coastal marine ecosystems. The aim of this study was to compare the density, percentage cover, thickness of clumps, condition index and size-frequency distribution of Mytilus galloprovincialis between urban and non-urban shores, at nested spatial scales, in the Northern ...
