1. Transcriptional biomarkers of toxicity – powerful tools or random noise? : An applied perspective from studies on bivalves
Sammanfattning : Aquatic organisms are constantly at risk of being exposed to potentially harmful chemical compounds of natural or anthropogenic origin. Biological life can for instance respond to chemical stressors by changes in gene expression, and thus, certain gene transcripts can potentially function as biomarkers, i.e. LÄS MER
2. Bioaccumulation and cycling of hydrophobic organic contaminants by Baltic Sea blue mussels, Mytilus edulis L
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Systematics and assessment of the chemosynthetic bivalve family Vesicomyidae
Sammanfattning : The deep ocean has fascinated researchers for centuries with discoveries of new ecosystems and species, yet there are still many biogeographic and evolutionary questions unanswered. Along active and passive tectonic margins, specialized ecologies thrive in a symbiosis between chemosynthesizing bacteria and their host animals. LÄS MER
4. On the role of the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis L. in the Baltic ecosystem
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
5. Functional Morphology of Gastropods and Bivalves
Sammanfattning : Functional morphology analyzes the relationships between form and function in organisms. However, a comprehensive analysis of any organic structure requires an integrated approach to morphology. For this purpose constructional morphology was developed, where function, phylogeny and construction together explain form. LÄS MER
