Abstract: The aim of this research was to characterize immune-related antibacterial substances from pearl oyster Pinctada fucata induced by bacterial invasion. Bacteria inoculation was performed by injecting 0.1 ml of 1.0 × 1012 colony-forming units/ml Vibrio parahaemolyticus into adductor… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.13464
Abstract: For hundreds of years, the color diversity of Mollusca shells has been a topic of interest for humanity. However, the genetic control underlying color expression is still poorly understood in mollusks. The pearl oyster Pinctada… read more here.
