Published in 2019 at "Developmental and comparative immunology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.dci.2018.10.015

Abstract: Galectins are lectins possessing an evolutionarily conserved carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) with affinity for β-galactoside. The key role played by innate immunity in invertebrates has recently become apparent. Herein, a full-length galectin (ScGal) was identified… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2019.144287

Abstract: C-type lectins are a superfamily of Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate-binding proteins that play crucial roles in invertebrate immunity. In this study, a novel C-type lectin gene (ScCTL-1) was identified in razor clam Sinonovacula constricta. The ScCTL-1 gene,… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Sea Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.seares.2019.01.005

Abstract: Abstract Estuarine abiotic characteristics vary with tidal variations and fresh water input, both driven by climatic conditions and often cyclical climatic events. Estuaries are very productive and bivalves often represent a substantial proportion of the… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Scientific reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-09562-6

Abstract: Autotomy appendages are fundamental evolutionary adaptations to escape predation. The siphon is an important foraging organ for bivalves. Here, we report the first demonstration of autotomy of the siphon in marine bivalves (razor clam Solen… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "International Journal of Food Engineering"

DOI: 10.1515/ijfe-2019-0288

Abstract: Abstract Refrigerated treatment offers an effective avenue to delay spoilage process of aquatic products during storage, while none or less study has been reported for bivalve species. This work aims to investigate the variations in… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Diseases of aquatic organisms"

DOI: 10.3354/dao03685

Abstract: Nuclear inclusion X (NIX), the etiological agent of bacterial gill disease in Pacific razor clams Siliqua patula, was associated with host mortality events in coastal Washington State, USA, during the mid-1980s. Ongoing observations of truncated… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Biology"

DOI: 10.3390/biology12010106

Abstract: Simple Summary Salinity can affect the physiological, reproductive, and developmental characteristics of marine molluscs. The Chinese razor clam (Sinonovacula constricta) is a marine bivalve that inhabits estuarine and intertidal habitats where salinity is usually lower… read more here.
