Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 970-1002, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...

Gene Cloning and Biochemical Characterization of the BMP-2 ofPinctada fucata

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2008
The bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) constitute a subfamily of the transforming growth factor type beta (TGF-beta) supergene family. BMP-2 plays an important role not only in osteoblast differentiation but also in pattern formation during development.

Evaluation of the Population Genetic Structure of Anadara tuberculosa (Mollusca, Bivalvia) in the Panamanian Pacific

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study analyzed the population genetics of Anadara tuberculosa (concha negra) in five Panamanian Pacific mangrove areas using the mitochondrial COI gene. We found high haplotypic diversity and low nucleotide diversity, a pattern that suggests a recent demographic expansion, which was supported by our neutrality tests and a star‐shaped haplotype ...

Genome‐Wide 6mA Map Unveils Epigenetic Adaptation in Deep‐Sea Limpet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study provides the first genome‐wide 6mA profile for any deep‐sea animal, uncovers its sophisticated, context‐dependent role in gene regulation, and functionally links this epigenetic mark to the adaptive pathways essential for deep‐sea survival.

Reliable Inference of Phylogenomic Relationship via Assembly‐Based Strategy Accommodating Raw Reads and Proteins

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Phylogenomics is a transformative approach in systematics, conservation biology, and biomedical research, enabling the inference of evolutionary relationships by leveraging hundreds to thousands of genes from genomic or transcriptomic data. However, acquiring high‐quality genomes and transcriptomes necessitates samples with intact DNA and RNA,

Salinity–temperature interaction drives metabolic and energetic changes in an Arctic crustacean

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Arctic is shifting towards a prevalence of warm and more saline Atlantic‐like waters. These changes in the marine environment pose significant challenges for the ecophysiology of marine invertebrates. Here, we measured the metabolic enzyme activity of citrate synthase and lactate dehydrogenase, as well as the energy content and level of ...

Processing and Characteristics of Pearl Oyster (Pinctada fucata) Extracts

Journal of the Korean Fisheries Society, 2007
This study examined the effective utilization of pearl processing by-products. Three extracts of hot-water extract (WE), hydro-cooked extract (HE), and two-step enzymatic hydrolysate (EH) were prepared from pearl oyster muscle, and their characteristics were examined. The moisture, crude protein, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN), and amino-N contents were

Long non-coding RNA LncMPEG1 responds to multiple environmental stressors by affecting biomineralization in pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Marine environmental change directly affects bivalve growth and survival. Exoskeleton formation, the main energy dissipation in the physiological metabolism, typically reflects the body growth of the bivalve.

Genomic Insights Into the Use of Green Tea (Camellia sinensis) as a Functional Feed Additive in Sustainable Aquaculture

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture is the fastest‐growing sector of animal food production, yet it faces increasing challenges in maintaining fish health and sustainability due to the widespread use of antibiotics and synthetic feed additives. Green tea (Camellia sinensis), a natural source of polyphenols and bioactive compounds, has gained attention as a functional
