Molecular Immune Responses of Ruditapes decussatus to Vibrio Infection at Different Temperatures: Expression of Key Genes and Resilience-Associated Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms

Fishes
The impact of pathogenic Vibrio on bivalves is expected to be aggravated by global warming, posing a growing threat to aquaculture. Clam production has been particularly vulnerable, with significant losses attributed to the lack of pathogen-resistant ...

Molluscs and echinoderms aquaculture: biological aspects, current status, technical progress and future perspectives for the most promising species in Italy

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2012
Shellfish aquaculture is a widespread activity in the Italian peninsula. However, only two bivalve species are mainly cultured along the coastline of that country: the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the Manila clam Venerupis ...

Response of antioxidant systems to copper in the gills of the clam Ruditapes decussatus

Marine Environmental Research, 2002
Copper (Cu) is an essential element for biological systems, however, when present in excess, is toxic. Metallothioneins can play an important role in Cu homeostasis and detoxification. Moreover, Cu can catalyse the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals that cause lipid peroxidation but defence systems in the cells can limit the oxidative damage.

The impacts of As accumulation under different pH levels: Comparing Ruditapes decussatus and Ruditapes philippinarum biochemical performance [PDF]

Environmental Research, 2016
Marine bivalves have been used to assess environmental As contamination and the effects of seawater acidification when both factors are acting alone, but limited information is available regarding the impacts of both factors acting in combination.

Seascape Genetics and Distinct Intraspecific Diversification of the Decapod Nephrops norvegicus in the Adriatic Sea

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
In the present study, the impact of biogeographical boundaries on the phylogeographical and demographic population status of Nephrops norvegicus was investigated within the Adriatic Sea, addressing important genetic indices for decapod functional conservation management.

Effect of stocking density on larval performance and post-larvae settlement of clam Ruditapes decussatus (Linnaeus, 1758) in bivalve hatchery production [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Larval rearing is a critical phase in bivalve hatchery production and plays a crucial role in the success of spat production. Therefore, understanding the effect of density on larval performance and post-larvae settlement is crucial for optimizing and ...

Update of the risk assessment of brominated phenols and their derivatives in food

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on brominated phenols and their derivatives in food, focusing on five bromophenols and one derivative: 2,4,6‐tribromophenol (2,4,6‐TBP), 2,4‐dibromophenol (2,4‐DBP), 4‐bromophenol (4‐BP), 2,6‐dibromophenol (2,6‐DBP), tetrabrominated bisphenol S (TBBPS), tetrabromobisphenol S

Interspecific variability of endocrine disruption and oxidative stress in two bivalve species from the Ria Formosa Lagoon (south coast of Portugal)

Scientia Marina, 2013
Estuaries are highly productive ecosystems that have been increasingly affected by anthropogenic activities. In this study, the presence of endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) and their relation to oxidative stress were assessed in two bivalve species (

Importance of integrating mixoplankton into marine ecosystem policy and management—Examples from the Marine Strategy Framework Directive

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 5, Page 1366-1383, September 2024.
Abstract Marine plankton capable of photosynthesis and predation (“mixoplankton”) comprise up to 50% of protist plankton and include many harmful species. However, marine environmental management policies, including the European Union Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the USEPA, assume a strict dichotomy between autotrophic phytoplankton ...
