Potential of innovative marine aquaculture techniques to close nutrient cycles
Abstract Aquaculture is an established technique for producing marine species. However, it creates large amounts of nutrient‐rich waste. Therefore, it is worth examining the methods available to use these nutrients and close the nutrient cycle. This review covers research activities of different saline water methods for food production.

Annual variation in the levels of transcripts of sex-specific genes in the mantle of the common mussel, Mytilus edulis [PDF]
Mytilus species are used as sentinels for the assessment of environmental health but sex or stage in the reproduction cycle is rarely considered even though both parameters are likely to influence responses to pollution.

Genome‐wide association and genomic selection in aquaculture
Abstract Recent advancements in genomic technologies have led to the discovery and application of DNA‐markers [e.g. single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] for the genetic improvement of several aquaculture species. The identification of specific genomic regions associated with economically important traits, using, for example, genome‐wide association ...

Sterol composition of the "living fossil" crinoid Gymnocrinus richeri [PDF]
The compn. of sterol mixt. from the living fossil crinoid G. richeri collected off Noumea (New Caledonia) was investigated. The free 3β-OH sterol mixt. was found to contain 14 components, Δ5 and ring satd. stanols, identified by GC-MS.

Abstract For hundreds of years, the color diversity of Mollusca shells has been a topic of interest for humanity. However, the genetic control underlying color expression is still poorly understood in mollusks. The pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera is increasingly becoming a biological model to study this process due to its ability to produce a large

The Cultivation of Scallop (Patinopecten yessoensis) in Hokkaido, Japan
Scallop culture is a widely practiced aquaculture activity in Japanese waters that involves collecting wild scallop spat and then growing the spat to a marketable size. This study aims to determine how the cultivation system, technology, and transportation are applied in scallop aquaculture in Japan.

The Pacific abalone is an economically important cold‐water shellfish. With its widespread culture, high temperature has become a key abiotic factor for the high mortality of Pacific abalone in summer, particularly in the south of China. To understand the molecular regulatory mechanisms of thermal stress response in Pacific abalone for further ...
