Dispersal, 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 کاملHemocyte responses of Manila clams, Ruditapes philippinarum, with varying parasite, Perkinsus olseni, severity to toxic-algal exposures.
This study assessed the possible combined effects of harmful algae and parasite infection on hemocyte and hemolymph parameters of a bivalve mollusc. Manila clams Ruditapes philippinarum, were exposed for 1 week, under controlled laboratory conditions, to bloom concentrations of two cultured dinoflagellates: Karenia selliformis, and Karenia mikimotoi, with demonstrated, sub-lethal, pathological ...
متن کاملDevelopment of real-time PCR assays for discrimination and quantification of two Perkinsus spp. in the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum.
The Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum is infected with 2 Perkinsus species, Perkinsus olseni and P. honshuensis, in Japan. The latter was described as a new species in Mie Prefecture, Japan, in 2006. Ray's Fluid Thioglycollate Medium (RFTM) assay has been most commonly used to quantify Perkinsus infection. However, this assay cannot discriminate between species that resemble one another morph...
متن کاملImmunological responses of the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) with varying parasite (Perkinsus olseni) burden, during a long-term exposure to the harmful alga, Karenia selliformis, and possible interactions.
The present study evaluated the possible effects of a toxic dinoflagellate, Karenia selliformis, upon immunological hemocyte functions of the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum, and on the progression of infection by Perkinsus olseni. Clams with variable levels of perkinsosis were exposed for 6 weeks to simulated blooms of cultured the K. selliformis (10(2) and 10(3)cell ml(-1)). Samples were ...
متن کاملPhysiological responses of Manila clams Venerupis (=Ruditapes) philippinarum with varying parasite Perkinsus olseni burden to toxic algal Alexandrium ostenfeldii exposure.
Manila clam stock from Arcachon Bay, France, is declining, as is commercial harvest. To understand the role of environmental biotic interactions in this decrease, effects of a toxic dinoflagellate, Alexandrium ostenfeldii, which blooms regularly in Arcachon bay, and the interaction with perkinsosis on clam physiology were investigated. Manila clams from Arcachon Bay, with variable natural level...
