OCEAN ACIDIFICATION AND WARMING IMPACTS ON NATIVE AND NON-NATIVE SHELLFISH: A MULTIDISCIPLINARY ASSESSMENT By ANAËLLE JULIE LEMASSON A thesis submitted to the University of Plymouth in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biological and Marine Sciences Plymouth University November 2017 Acknowledgements “Mighty oaks from little acorns grow” “Thank you” is not always an easy thing to say – us French are not as polite as the Brit- but do trust that when I say it, I truly mean it, and I have so many people to thank for their help and support throughout this PhD. First, I must thank Tony Knights, director of studies for this PhD. Tony, I was going to thank you at the very end, only to be able to use “last but not least”, but it felt very unfair. Indeed I have so much to thank you for, including – but not limited to – pushing me to apply for this project in the first place, giving me so much freedom of decision throughout, but more importantly giving me the support and vote of confidence that I often needed more than I should have. I am also very grateful that you never made a big deal of me tearing-up easily and just rolled with it, trust that I was always mortified of my inability to control my lachrymal glands. Second, I would like to thank my co-supervisors, Steve, Jason, and Roy, for not only giving me the opportunity to take on the project, but for your time and respective involvement and advice in this journey. Particularly, I would like to thank Steve: even though the project took a direction that was not anticipated, you were always willing to dedicate time to provide guidance, advice, and support, for which I am truly grateful. Additionally, I must thank Victor Kuri, although not an official supervisor, your involvement and help with the food science aspects have been invaluable. There are two additional ‘adult’ researchers in MBERC that I would like to thank, and whom I admire not just for their intellect but also for their compassion and tenacity through adversity. One is Andy Foggo: it is following your suggestion during a conversation we had at the Challenger Conference in 2014 that I contacted Tony regarding his upcoming PhD offer. Without this simple conversation, I doubt I would have been a candidate for the project in the first place, so thank you. The second is John Spicer: your guidance started when you were my first ‘research’ supervisor, and I feel lucky that it did not stop after the Honours project, that you carried on caring and checking up on me. On occasions throughout the PhD we had conversations in your office, and somehow you seemed to always pick times when I was feeling really low, doubting everything and mostly myself, but those conversations really helped me stay on track and motivated. On a more technical and logistic note, I am appreciative of the University of Plymouth and the School of Biological and Marine Science (formerly School of Marine Science and Engineering) for providing the funding that enabled this PhD, as well as the use of the facilities. I am indebted to the Marine Biological Association of the UK, PlyMSEF, the British Ecological Society, and the Doctoral Training i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Centre at Plymouth University for granting me various funding towards conference attendance. I am grateful to the National Trust for granting me access to the collection site in Antony House, where I got the specimens used in this study. I wish to extend the gratitude to the following people for their help and time, whether in the lab or in the field, and for teaching me various protocols. In MBERC: Marie P., Ann T., Roger H. (thank you also for all the donuts and parcel deliveries, which I swear were all science-related! – or running related, I will admit to that), and Richard ‘Tricky’ T. In the Food and Nutrition Unit: Liz P., Natalie S., Victoria C., and Rob C. In the engineering department, I would like to thank Zoltan G., pulling and crushing those oysters felt probably better than it should have. It goes without saying that I am indebted to the many volunteers who offered their time and energy to help me manage in the lab (incl. Chloé T. and Emma Z.). In particular, I would like to thank Lucy ‘Skirt’ J.; I don’t know if I am more grateful for the lab help or the much-needed gossip-time during the write-up of this thesis. But most of all I would like to thank Sam P-M. Sam, you were present from the start and I cannot possibly express how grateful I am: No.1 lab volunteer. Finally, I must thank my family and friends, scientists or not, who have been there for me the past few years. I know I am not always the easiest to handle, and I often feel like I am the neediest of them all, which is probably true. I must thank my sisters, who always think it is funny to remind me that, when I do not understand what I am doing, it is alright, for they do not understand it either! I also would like to thank Nils Piechaud, fellow PhD student, housemate, and friend, for his patience but also for putting his technical skills to good use towards producing Figure 1.7. For her professional and personal guidance whenever needed, thank you Dr. Bekah Cioffi. Heartfelt thanks to my two favourite yellow-haired friends: Holly Armstrong and Imogen Napper, and to my friend since my very first year in Plymouth over 6 years ago: Claire Jasper. The three of you have listened to me moan and rant more than one can count; I cannot thank you enough for being there for me every time. I hope that one day I will be able to repay the friendship. “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”, this PhD often felt like a thousand miles. So this one goes to my “running family”, who understand both the figurative and literal meanings of this saying; running with you has kept me sane (relatively), I trust you know how much you mean to me. ii AUTHOR'S DECLARATION At no time during the registration for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy has the author been registered for any other University award without prior agreement of the Graduate Quality Sub- Committee.

  • Mass Spectrometry Imaging Reveals New Biological Roles for Choline
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mass spectrometry imaging reveals new biological roles for choline esters and Tyrian purple precursors Received: 17 March 2015 Accepted: 27 July 2015 in muricid molluscs Published: 01 September 2015 David Rudd1, Maurizio Ronci2,3, Martin R. Johnston4, Taryn Guinan2, Nicolas H. Voelcker2 & Kirsten Benkendorff5 Despite significant advances in chemical ecology, the biodistribution, temporal changes and ecological function of most marine secondary metabolites remain unknown. One such example is the association between choline esters and Tyrian purple precursors in muricid molluscs. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) on nano-structured surfaces has emerged as a sophisticated platform for spatial analysis of low molecular mass metabolites in heterogeneous tissues, ideal for low abundant secondary metabolites. Here we applied desorption-ionisation on porous silicon (DIOS) to examine in situ changes in biodistribution over the reproductive cycle. DIOS-MSI showed muscle-relaxing choline ester murexine to co-localise with tyrindoxyl sulfate in the biosynthetic hypobranchial glands. But during egg-laying, murexine was transferred to the capsule gland, and then to the egg capsules, where chemical ripening resulted in Tyrian purple formation. Murexine was found to tranquilise the larvae and may relax the reproductive tract. This study shows that DIOS-MSI is a powerful tool that can provide new insights into marine chemo-ecology. Secondary metabolites are known to chemically mediate intra- and interspecies interactions between organisms1. In molluscs, secondary metabolites have been detected and identified during mate attraction2, defence3,4, predatory behaviour5, anti-fouling6,7 and reproduction8. The importance of understanding the mechanisms behind these chemical interactions within a species cannot be underestimated, particularly when specific secondary metabolites impart a competitive advantage.

J. Brook* A total of 358 species of molluscs (excluding pelagic species) is recorded here from coastal marine habitats around the northern Kermadec Islands. The fauna is dominated by species that are widely distributed in the tropical western and central Pacific Ocean. The majority of these are restricted to the tropics and subtropics, but some range south to temperate latitudes. Sixty-eight species, comprising 19% of the fauna, are thought to be endemic to the Kermadec Islands. That group includes several species that have an in situ fossil record extending back to the Pleistocene.

  • An Annotated Checklist of Intertidal Reef Invertebrates from Marmion and Shoalwater Islands Marine Parks
    Conservation Science W. Aust. 9 (2) : 201–213 (2014) An annotated checklist of intertidal reef invertebrates from Marmion and Shoalwater Islands marine parks ALAN J KENDRICK & MICHAEL J RULE Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia, 6983. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT An annotated checklist of 71 invertebrate species recorded from intertidal reefs in Marmion and Shoalwater Islands marine parks in the temperate south-west of Western Australia (WA) is presented, with information on their relative prevalence in the reserves and the habitats in which they were found. Most of the species have temperate distributions that extend across southern Australia and few are primarily tropical (at the southern limits of their distribution in the study area) to the study area. Twelve species are endemic to WA. This checklist will assist the development and implementation of long-term intertidal reef monitoring across WA’s temperate marine parks.

  • Prey Selection by the Tropical Marine Snail Thais Melones
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF. Lani Westfor the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Zoology presented on December 13,1985. Title: Prey Selection by the Tropical Marine Snail Thais melones: A Study of the Effects of Interindividual Variation and Foraging Experience on Growth and Gonad Development Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy Bruce A. Menge I studied the feeding behavior of marked individuals of the carnivorous marine snail Thais melones in a rocky shore habitat of Pacific Panama. The population of snails consume a variety of invertebrate species such as bivalves, limpets, and polychaetes. Individuals exhibited a range of diet breadth, with some specialized, but others generalized. Some individuals foraging over the same patch of habitat chose strikingly different diets. Interindividual variability in diet was not due solely to foraging by individuals in a homogeneous patch of a few prey species nor was it likely to be determined by relative abundance of prey in the environment. Shell growth was influenced by the consistency within an individual diet rather than by the identification of the prey consumed. Significantly more shell growth occured in those individuals that ate fewer prey species or ate relatively more of one species than other species represented in the diet. There was no significant relationship between type of prey species and growth. A six-month laboratory feeding experiment showed thatshell growth but not gonad development was affected significantlyby previous experience with particular prey, and by species composition of the diet.Snails grouped by previous experience (diet chosen during 1 month in laboratory experiments) were fed single species and restricted mixed diets.

No. 2. By TOM IREDALE. Conchologist, The Australian Museum. (Plates xx-xxiv.) MANY of the shells described in " Australian Molluscan Notes, No. 1 *" were derived from dredgings dumped at Dundas, on the Parramatta River. Owing to the depression, the operations of the dredge" Triton " have been suspended for the past three years, and, for the same reason, the trawling fleet, another prolific source of interesting material, has not been working continuously. Nevertheless, consideration of the forms obtained from the Dundas dump, and the results of a few successful finds, necessitate a number of notes, and a large number of records has accrued. I again have to thank Miss J. Allan and lVIr. G. C. Clutton, whose drawings and photographs make the species very easy to distinguish when specimens are compared. Cucullaea vaga Iredale. (Plate xx, fig. 1.) Mr. W. L. Dingeldei has been collecting specimens obtained from Captain K. Moller, and anything strange he has brought in to the Museum. Through his efforts most of the trawled novelties have been secured. A nice vaJve of O. vaga is here figured, procured off Shoalhaven Bight in about forty-five fathoms, a southernmost record, the species having been described from off Norah Head, north of Sydney.
