Biomarkers inRuditapes decussatus: a potential bioindicator species
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 ...

Genetic parallelism between European flat oyster populations at the edge of their natural range
Abstract Although all marine ecosystems have experienced global‐scale losses, oyster reefs have shown the greatest. Therefore, substantial efforts have been dedicated to restoration of such ecosystems during the last two decades. In Europe, several pilot projects for the restoration of the native European flat oyster, Ostrea edulis, recently begun and ...

Recruitment of the clam Ruditapes decussatus in the Lagoon of Thau, mediterranean
The spatial and temporal patterns of recruitment of juvenile clams Ruditapes decussatus were investigated in the Mediterranean lagoon of Thau. The periods of release of clam larvae were determined by monitoring the gonad maturity index in samples of adult females. Two massive spawnings were detected. Recruitment, deduced from spat density, was abundant

Some properties of habituation of siphon withdrawal in the slimy clam (Ruditapes decussatus)
Abstract Over the last decades the comparative study of the intelligence of invertebrate animals has shown the psychological complexity of these species. Although significant research has been carried out on the phyla of mollusks in gastropods and cephalopods, there has been little research concerning bivalves.
