Introduction Mussels (the members of the superfamily Mytiloidea) are a ubiquitous and common group of bivalves and a main source of protein for humans and non-human animals alike. Despite being the dominant organisms in many littoral, shallow sub-littoral, deep-sea hydrothermal vent and cold seep ecosys- tems [1]—including rocky and sediment shores on open coasts and in estuaries and marshes [2]—the position of mussels in relation to other pteriomorphian bivalves remains unresolved (e.g. [3]). Because of their economic and ecological importance, mussels have been the subject of considerable research effort. Taxonomically, Mytiloidea is a diverse group of pteriomorphian bivalves recog- nized by characteristics of shell form, hinge and mussel attachment scars [4]. Mytilidae, by most authors considered the only family in the superfamily Mytiloidea and the order Mytilida (but see Carter [5]), is an ancient group with roots extending to the Devonian [6]. It comprises eight recognized extant subfamilies [7,8], with approximately 400 species worldwide [9], Electronic supplementary material is available probably constituting the largest family of bivalves in number of species. at http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2016.0857 or Like mussels, in particular, bivalves of the subclass Pteriomorphia in general form a commercially important clade with species harvested and cultured via http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org. worldwide both for food (e.g. oysters, scallops, ark shells), and ornament & 2016 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

Benthic macroinvertebrates are commonly included in studies to monitor the effects of human and natural stresses on marine and estuarine ecosystems. There are several reasons for this. Macroinvertebrates (here defined as animals retained on a 0.5-mm mesh sieve) are abundant in most coastal and estuarine sediments, typically on the order of 103 to 104 per meter squared. Benthic communities are typically composed of many taxa from different phyla, and quantitative measures of community diversity (e.g., Rosenberg et al. 2004) and the relative abundance of animals with different feeding behaviors (e.g., Weisberg et al. 1997, Pelletier et al. 2010), can be used to evaluate ecosystem health. Because most benthic invertebrates are sedentary as adults, they function as integrators, over periods of months to years, of the properties of their environment.

  • Analysis of Synonymous Codon Usage Patterns in Sixty-Four Different Bivalve Species
    Analysis of synonymous codon usage patterns in sixty-four diVerent bivalve species Marco Gerdol1, Gianluca De Moro1, Paola Venier2 and Alberto Pallavicini1 1 Department of Life Sciences, University of Trieste, Trieste, Italy 2 Department of Biology, University of Padova, Padova, Italy ABSTRACT Synonymous codon usage bias (CUB) is a defined as the non-random usage of codons encoding the same amino acid across diVerent genomes. This phenomenon is common to all organisms and the real weight of the many factors involved in its shaping still remains to be fully determined. So far, relatively little attention has been put in the analysis of CUB in bivalve mollusks due to the limited genomic data available. Taking advantage of the massive sequence data generated from next generation sequencing projects, we explored codon preferences in 64 diVerent species pertaining to the six major evolutionary lineages in Bivalvia. We detected remarkable diVerences across species, which are only partially dependent on phylogeny. While the intensity of CUB is mild in most organisms, a heterogeneous group of species (including Arcida and Mytilida, among the others) display higher bias and a strong preference for AT-ending codons. We show that the relative strength and direction of mutational bias, selection for translational eYciency and for translational accuracy contribute to the establishment of synonymous codon usage in bivalves. Although many aspects underlying bivalve CUB still remain obscure, we provide for the first time an overview of this phenomenon

Its conspicuous pink color implies the presence of carotenoprotein. However, the carotenoprotein from the scallop ovary has never been isolated and characterized, probably due to its instability and complexity. Here, we developed an extraction and isolation procedure for the carotenoprotein by employing a basic buffer containing potassium bromide to facilitate its efficient extraction from the ovary, and we succeeded in obtaining the carotenoprotein, termed pectenovarin. The carotenoid composition of the pectenovarin was similar to that of the ovary. The N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences of pectenovarin showed a high similarity to those of vitellogenin, the precursor of egg yolk protein under analysis. Keywords: carotenoproteins; carotenoids; scallop ovary; Japanese scallop 1. Introduction Carotenoids are one of the essential classes of metabolites in a wide variety of living organisms. More than 750 different carotenoids have been reported to date [1]. It is known that carotenoids bind to proteins, termed carotenoproteins, to stabilize themselves against light or heat or to manipulate their physical properties, including solubility and color.

  • Early Ontogeny of Jurassic Bakevelliids and Their Bearing on Bivalve Evolution
    Early ontogeny of Jurassic bakevelliids and their bearing on bivalve evolution NIKOLAUS MALCHUS Malchus, N. 2004. Early ontogeny of Jurassic bakevelliids and their bearing on bivalve evolution. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 49 (1): 85–110. Larval and earliest postlarval shells of Jurassic Bakevelliidae are described for the first time and some complementary data are given concerning larval shells of oysters and pinnids. Two new larval shell characters, a posterodorsal outlet and shell septum are described. The outlet is homologous to the posterodorsal notch of oysters and posterodorsal ridge of arcoids. It probably reflects the presence of the soft anatomical character post−anal tuft, which, among Pteriomorphia, was only known from oysters. A shell septum was so far only known from Cassianellidae, Lithiotidae, and the bakevelliid Kobayashites. A review of early ontogenetic shell characters strongly suggests a basal dichotomy within the Pterio− morphia separating taxa with opisthogyrate larval shells, such as most (or all?) Praecardioida, Pinnoida, Pterioida (Bakevelliidae, Cassianellidae, all living Pterioidea), and Ostreoida from all other groups. The Pinnidae appear to be closely related to the Pterioida, and the Bakevelliidae belong to the stem line of the Cassianellidae, Lithiotidae, Pterioidea, and Ostreoidea. The latter two superfamilies comprise a well constrained clade. These interpretations are con− sistent with recent phylogenetic hypotheses based on palaeontological and genetic (18S and 28S mtDNA) data. A more detailed phylogeny is hampered by the fact that many larval shell characters are rather ancient plesiomorphies. Key words: Bivalvia, Pteriomorphia, Bakevelliidae, larval shell, ontogeny, phylogeny.

Freshwater bivalve (Unioniformes) diversity, systematics, and evolution: status and future directions Abstract Freshwater bivalves of the order Unioniformes represent the largest bivalve radiation in freshwater. The unioniform radiation is unique in the class Bivalvia because it has an obligate parasitic larval stage on the gills or fins of fish; it is divided into 6 families, 181 genera, and ∼800 species. These families are distributed across 6 of the 7 continents and represent the most endangered group of freshwater animals alive today. North American unioniform bivalves have been the subject of study and illustration since Martin Lister, 1686, and over the past 320 y, significant gains have been made in our understanding of the evolutionary history and systematics of these animals.
