Two Routes to Land: Genomic Underpinnings of Parallel Aerial Egg Deposition in Aquatic Old-World Pila and New-World Pomacea (Ampullariidae). [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Comparative genomics of Gondwana‐diverged Pila and Pomacea reveals parallel evolution of aerial oviposition. Convergent chromosomal rearrangements reshape regulatory landscapes within topologically associating domains. Lineage‐specific gene family expansions and viral‐derived perivitelline proteins (PV1) underpin desiccation resistance.

The genus Acanthochitona (Mollusca: Polylacophora) in the Mediterranean Sea: morphological and molecular data

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2011
This work represents an attempt to resolve the confused and contradictory taxonomy of Mediterranean chitons of the genus Acanthochitona by analysing morphological (SEM observations of aesthetes, radula and girdle) and molecular data (COI, 12S, ITS1 ...

An Eocene Articulated Polyplacophora (Mollusca) from the La Meseta Formation, Antarctica and the Stratigraphy of the Fossil-Bearing Strata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An exceptionally well-preserved specimen of Leptochiton sp. attached to a brachiopod valve is described from the early Eocene beds of the La Meseta Formation, Seymour Island. It records the first fossil Polyplacophora from Antarctica.

Ontogeny of the elemental composition and the biomechanics of radular teeth in the chiton Lepidochitona cinerea

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

The Polyplacophora of Tasmania

open access: yesPapers and proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania., 1913
Recent dredgings and other excursions in connection with the Tasnianian Field Naturalists Club, but more particularly an extensive examination of the North-West Coast by W. G. Torr, have introduced us to many species not previously known from Tasmania.

Radula synthesis by three species of iron mineralizing molluscs: production rate and elemental demand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A cold-shock technique was used to determine radula production rates for the chitons Acanthopleura hirtosa and Plaxiphora albida, and for the limpet Patelloida alticostata, which replaced their radular teeth at rates of 0.40, 0.36 and 0.51 rows d-1 ...

Tightening the girdle: phylotranscriptomics of Polyplacophora

open access: yesJournal of Molluscan Studies, 2021
ABSTRACT The phylogenetic relationships within the molluscan class Polyplacophora (chitons) have been studied using morphology, traditional Sanger markers and mitogenomics, but, to date, no analysis has been carried out using transcriptomic and genome-wide data.
