Complex mitogenomic rearrangements within the Pectinidae (Mollusca: Bivalvia) [PDF]

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Abstract Background Scallops (Bivalvia: Pectinidae) present extraordinary variance in both mitochondrial genome size, structure and content, even when compared to the extreme diversity documented within Mollusca and Bivalvia.

Mito-nuclear coevolution and phylogenetic artifacts: the case of bivalve mollusks. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2022
Mito‐nuclear phylogenetic discordance in Bivalvia is well known. In particular, the monophyly of Amarsipobranchia (Heterodonta + Pteriomorphia), retrieved from mitochondrial markers, contrasts with the monophyly of Heteroconchia (Heterodonta ...

The gene-rich genome of the scallop Pecten maximus. [PDF]

Gigascience, 2020
BACKGROUND: The king scallop, Pecten maximus, is distributed in shallow waters along the Atlantic coast of Europe. It forms the basis of a valuable commercial fishery and plays a key role in coastal ecosystems and food webs.

Bivalves from the Changhsingian (upper Permian) Bellerophon Formation of the Dolomites (Italy): ancestors of Lower Triassic post‐extinction benthic communities

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 2, March/April 2023., 2023
Abstract Diverse shallow marine fossil assemblages from the Changhsingian Bellerophon Formation (Dolomites) record late Palaeozoic marine life immediately before the end‐Permian mass extinction. We classified c. 6500 bivalves from western Dolomites localities, identifying 26 species including one new family (Ladinomyidae), three new genera (Ladinomya ...

Victims of ancient hyperthermal events herald the fates of marine clades and traits under global warming

Global Change Biology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 868-878, February 2021., 2021
Ancient global warming events may hint at what lies in store for us if we do not curb man‐made global warming and modern marine animals are already responding to warming waters. Averaged over six separate global warming events, or hyperthermals, fossil extinctions support that photosymbiotic corals and the reef habitats they provide, brachiopods ...

Investigating the Bivalve Tree of Life -- an exemplar-based approach combining molecular and novel morphological characters. [PDF]

, 2014
To re-evaluate the relationships of the major bivalve lineages, we amassed detailed morpho-anatomical, ultrastructural and molecular sequence data for a targeted selection of exemplar bivalves spanning the phylogenetic diversity of the class. We included

A Molecular Phylogeny of Bivalve Mollusks: Ancient Radiations and Divergences as Revealed by Mitochondrial Genes [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Bivalves are very ancient and successful conchiferan mollusks (both in terms of species number and geographical distribution). Despite their importance in marine biota, their deep phylogenetic relationships were scarcely investigated from a ...

A new species of the genus Catillopecten (Bivalvia: Pectinoidea: Propeamussiidae): morphology, mitochondrial genome, and phylogenetic relationship [PDF]

, 2023
Catillopecten is a small genus of deep-sea glass scallops, but its diversity is poorly known in many parts of the world ocean. We described C. margaritatus n. sp.

How many sea scallops are there and why does it matter?

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 513-519, November 2020., 2020
Oceanic conditions along the Atlantic Coast of North America are changing rapidly. Surface water temperatures in the Gulf of Maine have increased faster than 99% of the global oceans, and major infrastructure projects, including the largest windfarm in the world, are under development along this seaboard. In Canada and the US, the Atlantic sea scallop (
