Colour plasticity in the shells and pearls of animal graft model Pinctada margaritifera assessed by HSV colour quantification. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 The bivalve Pinctada margaritifera has the capacity to produce the most varied and colourful pearls in the world. Colour expression in the inner shell is under combined genetic and environmental control and is correlated with the colour of pearls ...

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 342, Issue 2, Page 76-84, March 2024.Early development stages in marine bivalve are critical periods where larvae transition from pelagic free-life to sessile mature individuals. The successive metamorphosis requires the expression of key genes, the functions of which might be under high ...
