Biology
Development
At the northern extreme of its range in Massachusetts germ and gonial cells complete development in winter and early spring according to Sastry 1970.[1]Шаблон:Rp At the southern extreme the timeline is very different with Barber & Blake 1983 finding cytoplasmic growth stages occurred in July in Tarpon Springs, Florida, almost at the highest water temperature of the year.[1]Шаблон:Rp
Immunity
Шаблон:Visible anchor is a peptidoglycan recognition protein (PGRP).[2]Шаблон:Rp Its cDNA was cloned by Ni et al. 2007 and is the first bivalve PGRP to be cloned.[2]Шаблон:Rp Шаблон:Visible anchor is a galectin discovered by Song et al. 2010,[2]Шаблон:Rp Шаблон:Visible anchor is a toll-like receptor (TLR) shared with other bivalves.[2]Шаблон:Rp It was first found in this scallop by Song et al. 2006.[2]Шаблон:Rp Song 2006 also found an inhibitor of κB (IκB).[2]Шаблон:Rp Шаблон:Visible anchor is the first big defensin cloned from this scallop.[2]Шаблон:Rp The gene is 531 nucleotides and the polypeptide product is 122 amino acids.[2]Шаблон:Rp Recombinant AiBD is an antimicrobial for Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, and fungi.[2]Шаблон:Rp Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) mRNA expression increases in the gill and mantle in response to Vibrio anguillarum.[2]Шаблон:Rp
Bay scallop fishery
This species of scallop used to support a large wild fishery on the East Coast of the United States, but since the 1950s it has decreased greatly. This is apparently the result of several negative influences, one of which is a reduction in sea grasses (to which bay scallop spat attach) due to increased coastal development and concomitant nutrient runoff. By contrast, the Atlantic sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) is at historically high levels of abundance because the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act of 2006 put a limit on catch numbers and led to a recovery from overfishing.
Scallop aquaculture is currently being practiced in Florida.[3] They were introduced into China in the 1980s and are the basis of a vibrant aquaculture industry in that country[4] and attempted elsewhere.
Subspecies
This species has five different subspecies:[5]
- A. i. amplicostatus (Dall, 1898) [6]
- A. i. concentricus (Say, 1822) [7]
- A. i. irradians (Lamarck, 1819) [8]
- A. i. sablensis (Clarke, 1965) - a fossil subspecies
- A. i. taylorae Petuch, 1987 - the southern bay scallop [9]
