Developmental Plasticity in the Shell of the Queen Conch Strombus Gigas

Ecology, 1995
To evaluate the developmental plasticity of shell morphology in the queen conch Strombus gigas, we conducted transplant experiments at five sites in the Exuma Cays, Bahamas. Juvenile conchs from a sixth site were placed in cages at three sites, in an open cage at a fourth site, and in a naturally confined area at a fifth site. All animals spent 8 mo in

Structural basis for the fracture toughness of the shell of the conch Strombus gigas

Nature, 2000
Natural composite materials are renowned for their mechanical strength and toughness: despite being highly mineralized, with the organic component constituting not more than a few per cent of the composite material, the fracture toughness exceeds that of single crystals of the pure mineral by two to three orders of magnitude. The judicious placement of

Symbiotic Association Between Symbiodinium and the Gastropod Strombus gigas: Larval Acquisition of Symbionts

Marine Biotechnology, 2013
The importance of the dinoflagellate Symbiodinium sp. was studied in the early life stages of the gastropod Strombus gigas. This dinoflagellate was not found in the eggs or the gelatinous mass surrounding the eggs of the mollusk; therefore, Symbiodinium is not inherited directly. To determine whether the planktonic veligers can acquire these algae from

Analysis of toughening mechanisms in the Strombus gigas shell

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2015
A finite element analysis of the fracture mechanisms in the Strombus gigas conch shell is presented in this work. The S. gigas shell has a complex microarchitecture that consists of three main macroscopic layers of calcium carbonate: the inner, middle, and outer layers.
