Clues of ancient incomplete lineage sorting during bivalve evolution undermine support for Heterodonta

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract A long‐standing challenge in phylogenomics has been the resolution of relationships originated from ancient radiations. In these cases, phenomena such as incomplete lineage sorting can increase the support for conflicting resolutions. Most of the diversity in the Class Bivalvia originated during an Ordovician radiation; indeed, several deep ...

Range‐Wide Genetic Population Structure and Environmental Adaptation in the Eastern Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) Provides Insight for Aquaculture

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 15, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Selective breeding in aquaculture is necessary to establish food security and meet demand for sustainably produced protein. An informed selective breeding program requires understanding how population structure, environmental adaptation, and human activities shape natural genetic variation in wild conspecifics.

Vibrio vulnificus Oysters: Pearls and Perils [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2011
Vibrio vulnificus is a naturally occurring bacterium found ubiquitously in coastal waters. Infection with this organism, which is often associated with eating raw oysters, is the leading cause of seafood-related deaths in the United States. This article reviews the current scientific literature on this potentially lethal pathogen and discusses the ...
