Deciphering mollusc shell production: the roles of genetic mechanisms through to ecology, aquaculture and biomimetics

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 1812-1837, December 2020., 2020
ABSTRACT Most molluscs possess shells, constructed from a vast array of microstructures and architectures. The fully formed shell is composed of calcite or aragonite. These CaCO3 crystals form complex biocomposites with proteins, which although typically less than 5% of total shell mass, play significant roles in determining shell microstructure ...

Valorization of the Pearl Oyster (Pinctada imbricata radiata): Application of Braising Associated with Marinade

open access: yesJournal of Applied Biotechnology
Fish products are an important part of the eating habits of the Senegalese. Among the species consumed in this country is the pearl oyster. The choice of this species in this study is justified because it is little, if not at all, valued in Senegal ...

Pinctada imbricata: an efficient "alien" as a biomarker

open access: yes, 2022
The "Lessepsian" migration, although circumscribed to the Mediterranean Sea, represents the most significant biogeographical event worldwide. The pearl oyster Pinctada imbricata (Röding, 1798), was one of the first species to reach the Mediterranean ...
