Experimental evidence of internal transport of invasive apple snail eggs by waterbirds [PDF]
The potential role of waterbirds in the dispersal of invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata was evaluated by feeding their eggs to mallards Anas platyrhynchos and quantifying the recovery of intact and viable eggs in their faeces and regurgitations. A

Ingestion of poisonous eggs from the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata adversely affects bullfrog Lithobathes catesbeianus intestine morphophysiology [PDF]
The poisonous eggs of Pomacea canaliculata (Caenogastropoda, Ampullariidae) hardly have any predator. This invasive snail, listed among the 100 worst invasive species, is a serious crop pest and a vector of a human parasitosis.

Adverse effects of cypermethrin on golden apple snails (Pomacea canaliculata) and their eggs, and application of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as biomarker [PDF]
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of cypermethrin on hatching rate of golden apple snail eggs, mortality rate of the golden apple snails, and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) expression applied as a bio-indicator. The results showed that cypermethrin

Egg perivitelline fluid proteome of a freshwater snail: Insight into the transition from aquatic to terrestrial egg deposition [PDF]
Rationale Proteins from the egg perivitelline fluid (PVF) are assumed to play critical roles in embryonic development, but for many groups of animals their identities remain unknown. Identifying egg PVF proteins is a critical step towards understanding their functions including their roles in evolutionary ...
