Isolation and characterization of a pathogenic bacterium specific to Manila clam Tapes philippinarum larvae
A bactenal straln belonging to the genus Vibno was involved in a recurrent outbreak of disease In Manila clam Tapes phdipplnaruni larvae at a commercial hatchery. This vibrio, named VTP for convenience, was not related to the known pathogenic vibrios and possessed unusual characteristics. Only Manila clam larvae and postlarvae were affected by the disease. Oyster and scallop larvae were not aff...
متن کاملMolecular evolution and recombination in gender-associated mitochondrial DNAs of the Manila clam Tapes philippinarum.
Doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI) provides an intriguing system for addressing aspects of molecular evolution and intermolecular recombination of mitochondrial DNA. For this reason, a large sequence analysis has been performed on Tapes philippinarum (Bivalvia, Veneridae), which has mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy that is consistent with a DUI. The sequences of a 9.2-kb region (containing 29 g...
متن کاملDispersal, recurrence and settlement of Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum
The majority of the marine benthos is pelagic in their larval stage. The Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum, is widely distributed on sandy tidal flats across Japan and a commercially important shellfish. The clam has a planktonic larval stage, which lasts 2 to 3 weeks after hatching. In this stage, the most clam larvae are able to disperse over wide areas with the currents and then settle on ...
متن کاملDensity and temperature-dependence of vital rates in the Manila clam Tapes philippinarum: a stochastic demographic model
We developed a demographic and management model for the Manila clam Tapes philippinarum (one of the most important commercial mollusc species in Europe) from data collected in the Sacca di Goro lagoon, Italy. Herein, we describe growth and survival processes by 2 submodels incorporating temperature-driven fluctuations in vital parameters, density-dependent effects on survival, and sediment type...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of allograft inflammatory factor-1 (AIF-1) from Manila clam Venerupis philippinarum.
Allograft inflammatory factor-1 (AIF-1) is a 17 kDa interferon-γ-inducible Ca(2+)-binding EF-hand protein that plays a significant role not only in different host responses to inflammatory stimuli, but in the whole host immune defense reaction. In the present study, the full-length cDNA of AIF-1 was identified from manila clam Venerupis philippinarum (denoted as VpAIF-1) by cDNA library and RAC...
