Elemental analyses reveal distinct mineralization patterns in radular teeth of various molluscan taxa [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 The molluscan phylum is the second specious animal group with its taxa feeding on a variety of food sources. This is enabled by the radula, a chitinous membrane with embedded teeth, one important autapomorphy.

The complete mitochondrial genome and phylogenetic analysis of Lepidozona coreanica (Reeve, 1847) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2023 In the present study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Lepidozona coreanica was sequenced and described. The complete mitogenome sequence of L. coreanica is 16,572 bp long and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and

A Chromosome-Level Genome Assembly of Chiton Acanthochiton rubrolineatus (Chitonida, Polyplacophora, Mollusca) [PDF]
Animals(1) Background: Chitons (Mollusca, Polyplacophora) are relatively primitive species in Mollusca that allow the study of biomineralization. Although mitochondrial genomes have been isolated from Polyplacophora, there is no genomic information at the ...

Ontogeny of the elemental composition and the biomechanics of radular teeth in the chiton Lepidochitona cinerea [PDF]
Frontiers in Zoology, 2022 Background The radula, a chitinous membrane with embedded teeth, is one important molluscan autapomorphy. In some taxa (Polyplacophora and Patellogastropoda) one tooth type (the dominant lateral tooth) was studied intensively in the last decades with ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the common chiton, Liolophura japonica (Lischke, 1873) [PDF]
GigaByteChitons (Polyplacophora) are marine molluscs that can be found worldwide from cold waters to the tropics, and play important ecological roles in the environment. However, only two chiton genomes have been sequenced to date.
