Predation is a dominant structuring force in ecological communities. In aquatic
environments, predation on bivalves has long been an important focal interaction for …

We document differences in shell damage and shell thickness in a bivalve mollusc
(Laternula elliptica) from seven sites around Antarctica with differing exposures to ice …

Increase in oxidative damage and decrease in cellular maintenance is often associated with
aging, but, in marine ectotherms, both processes are also strongly influenced by somatic …

This review summarises and synthesises major aspects of the physiology of reproduction in
the Pectinidae (Mollusca: Bivalvia). Reproductive status of an individual or population can …

Predation is known to impact growth and reproduction, and the physiological state of the
prey, including its susceptibility to oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated how …

This study focused on the comparison of growth and mortality of Lion's Paw scallops
Nodipecten subnodosus from Gulf of California and Pacific populations and their reciprocal …

Introduction One of the most important trade-offs for many animals is that between survival
and reproduction. This is particularly apparent when mating increases the risk of predation …

Bivalves in estuaries are exposed to many environmental variables but little is known about
how such variables, including reduced salinity, affect reproduction and growth in burrowing …

The intertidal mussel Perumytilus purpuratus exhibits phenotypic plasticity in response to
predation threats, with these responses influenced by the mussels' perception of predation …
