The effect of increasing water temperatures on Schistosoma mansoni transmission and Biomphalaria pfeifferi population dynamics: an agent-based modelling study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
INTRODUCTION: There is increasing interest in the control and elimination of schistosomiasis. Little is known, however, about the likely effects of increasing water-body temperatures on transmission. METHODS: We have developed an agent-based model of the

The mitochondrial genome of the venomous cone snail conus consors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cone snails are venomous predatory marine neogastropods that belong to the species-rich superfamily of the Conoidea. So far, the mitochondrial genomes of two cone snail species (Conus textile and Conus borgesi) have been described, and these feed on ...

Metabolism of ovorubin, the major egg lipoprotein from the apple snail [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2003
The site of synthesis of molluscs lipoproteins is little known and was investigated for the egg lipoprotein perivitellin 1 (PV 1) or ovorubin in the freshwater snail Pomacea canaliculata. Tissues (albumen gland, gonad-digestive gland complex and muscle) of vitellogenic females were incubated in vitro at 25 degrees C for 12 h with 14C Leucine.

Selection on male and female reproductive traits in a simultaneous hermaphrodite land snail [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Classical sexual selection theory assumes that the reproductive success of females is limited by the resources available for egg production, while the reproductive success of males is determined by the number of mates (Bateman’s principle).
