The importance of flow and settlement cues to larvae of the abalone, Haliotis rufescens Swainson.
In flow tank experiments, I tested the relative importance of active and passive processes to larvae settling on manufactured casts that were hydrodynamically rough at a small scale (mm to <1 cm). I predefined two distinct regions of small-scale flow that I used to manipulate larval settlement behaviour of the red abalone Haliotis rufescens Swainson. The larvae show a stringent settlement respo...
متن کاملThe Pallial Organs of Haliotis Asinina Linnaeus (Gastropoda : Haliotidae)
The pallial organs of Haliotis asinina are composed of gills, osphradium, hypobranchial gland, kidney and heart. The bipectinate paired gills are on the left and right sides of the mantle cavity. The gill epithelium is composed of ciliated columnar cells and occasional mucous cells. The paired osphradia are long, slender and lie anteriorly on each side of the mantle near the gills. The ciliated...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of lustrin A, a matrix protein from shell and pearl nacre of Haliotis rufescens.
A specialized extracellular matrix of proteins and polysaccharides controls the morphology and packing of calcium carbonate crystals and becomes occluded within the mineralized composite during formation of the molluscan shell and pearl. We have cloned and characterized the cDNA coding for Lustrin A, a newly described matrix protein from the nacreous layer of the shell and pearl produced by the...
متن کاملQuasi-static and Dynamic Mechanical Response of Haliotis Rufescens (abalone) Shells
ÐQuasi-static and dynamic compression and three-point bending tests have been carried out on Haliotis rufescens (abalone) shells. The mechanical response of the abalone shell is correlated with its microstructure and damage mechanisms. The mechanical response is found to vary signi®cantly from specimen to specimen and requires the application of Weibull statistics in order to be quantitatively ...
متن کاملTranscriptome-wide polymorphisms of red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) reveal patterns of gene flow and local adaptation.
Global climate change is projected to accelerate during the next century, altering oceanic patterns in temperature, pH and oxygen concentrations. Documenting patterns of genetic adaptation to these variables in locations that currently experience geographic variation in them is an important tool in understanding the potential for natural selection to allow populations to adapt as climate change...
