DOI: 10.1007/s00248-020-01553-2
Abstract: Bivalves have ecological and economic importance but information regarding their associated microbiomes is lacking. As suspension feeders, bivalves capture and ingest a myriad of particles, and their digestive organs have a high throughput of particle-associated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-20122-9
Abstract: Shape variability represents an important direct response of organisms to selective environments. Here, we use a combination of geometric morphometrics and generalised additive mixed models (GAMMs) to identify spatial patterns of natural shell shape variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/07420528.2017.1363224
Abstract: ABSTRACT Environmental cues allow organisms to synchronise their internal biological rhythms with external environmental cycles. These rhythms are regulated on a molecular level by oscillating interactions between clock genes and their proteins. Light is a… read more here.
