DOI: 10.1007/s00227-017-3162-5
Abstract: It is particularly difficult to identify bivalve species at early development stages (larvae and spat) by morphological examination. Targeting genetic marker commonly used for species identification, we developed a cheap and user friendly tool for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2020.103660
Abstract: Bivalves were long thought to be "symptomless carriers" of marine microalgal toxins to human seafood consumers. In the past three decades, science has come to recognize that harmful algae and their toxins can be harmful… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foodcont.2017.03.010
Abstract: Abstract The most recent data show that shellfish farming represents approximately 60% of the total aquaculture production in Europe. Bivalves molluscs are internationally recognized as a potential vehicle for foodborne diseases especially when consumed raw… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/pab.2017.32
Abstract: Abstract. The complex morphological evolution of the bivalve Ptychomya throughout the well-studied Agrio Formation in the Neuquén Basin (west-central Argentina, lower/upper Valanginian-lowest Barremian) constitutes an ideal opportunity to study evolutionary patterns and processes occurring at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/08912963.2016.1265956
Abstract: Abstract Random shell sections of the Pliensbachian (Early Jurassic) larger bivalve Opisoma from columns within the Main Post Office building of Ferrara, northern Italy, have been discovered to bear neat clavate-shape boreholes. These boreholes belong… read more here.

Evolutionary conservation and divergence of the transcriptional regulation of bivalve shell secretion across life-history stages
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Royal Society Open Science"
DOI: 10.1098/rsos.221022
Abstract: Adult molluscs produce shells with diverse morphologies and ornamentations, different colour patterns and microstructures. The larval shell however, is a phenotypically more conserved structure. How do developmental and evolutionary processes generate varying diversity at different… read more here.

Specimen alignment with limited point-based homology: 3D morphometrics of disparate bivalve shells (Mollusca: Bivalvia)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.1101/2022.03.04.482893
Abstract: Comparative morphology fundamentally relies on the orientation and alignment of specimens. In the era of geometric morphometrics, point-based homologies are commonly deployed to register specimens and their landmarks in a shared coordinate system. However, the… read more here.
