Organic Phases in Bivalve (Arctica Islandica) Shells: Their Bulk and Amino Acid Nitrogen Stable Isotope Compositions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The stable nitrogen isotope composition of bivalve shell organics serves as a proxy for nitrogen fluxes in modern and past ecosystems. An essential prerequisite to reconstruct environmental variables from δ15N values of bivalve shells is to understand if pristine isotope signals can be retrieved from shell organics after sample pretreatment ...

Energy regimes help tackle limitations with the prehistoric cultural‐phases approach to learn about sustainable transitions: Archaeological evidence from northern Spain

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 921-937, August 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Human societies face challenges in transitioning towards low‐carbon economies and sustainable management of land use and natural resources. Documenting and learning from past transitions helps policy‐makers cope with such challenges. The agricultural revolution in Cantabrian Spain (ca.

Effect of TBT on Ruditapes decussatus juveniles

open access: yesChemosphere, 2006
The effects of sublethal concentrations of tributyltin (TBT) on growth of juvenile clams Ruditapes decussatus were determined during exposure to TBT concentrations of 50, 100 and 250 ng l(-1) (as Sn) for a period up to two years. Length and weight of clams increased continuously in all treatments throughout the experimental period, and, overall, rates ...

Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of crustaceans

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Vector or reservoir species of three diseases of crustaceans listed in the Animal Health Law were identified based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review, to support a possible updating of Regulation (EU) 2018/1882.

Reproduction Under Stress: Acute Effect of Low Salinities and Heat Waves on Reproductive Cycle of Four Ecologically and Commercially Important Bivalves

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The impacts of climate change on the structure and functioning of estuaries is a major focus of concern, even more when the affected species support important fisheries as the bivalves Ruditapes decussatus, Ruditapes philippinarum, Venerupis corrugata ...

Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of molluscs

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Vector or reservoir species of five mollusc diseases listed in the Animal Health Law were identified, based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review, to support a possible updating of Regulation (EU) 2018/1882. Mollusc species on or in which Mikrocytos mackini, Perkinsus marinus, Bonamia exitiosa, Bonamia ostreae and ...

Comparative study of gonadal development of Ruditapes philippinarum (Adams and Reeve) and Ruditapes decussatus (L.) (Mollusca: Bivalvia): Influence of temperature

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
Laboratory experiments were used to study the influence of temperature on the reproductive behaviour of two species of clam, Ruditapes decussatus and Ruditapes philippinarum, during their adaptation to the temperature conditions of Galician coastal ...

Temporal dynamics of heatwaves are key drivers of sediment mixing by bioturbators

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1105-1116, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Heatwaves affect tidal flat ecosystems by altering the bioturbating behavior of benthic species, with potential consequences for sediment oxygenation, particle mixing, and erodibility. Although the frequency and duration of heatwaves are expected to increase under global warming scenarios, we lack insights into how heatwaves' temporal dynamics

Uncovering the immunological repertoire of the carpet shell clam Ruditapes decussatus through a transcriptomic-based approach

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries, 2019
The grooved carpet-shell clam Ruditapes decussatus is native to the Northern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea and has a high commercial value. It is one of the main native bivalve species cultured in Europe.

Biomarkers inRuditapes decussatus: a potential bioindicator species

open access: yesBiomarkers, 2004
The clam Ruditapes decussatus is distributed worldwide and due to its ecological and economical interest has been proposed as a bioindicator in areas where mussels are not available. The accumulation of several anthropogenic compounds in their tissues suggests that they possess mechanisms that allow them to cope with the toxic effects of these ...
