| population differences of aspartate aminotransferase and peptidase in the bay mussel mytilus edulis. | this investigation has demonstrated considerable heterogeneity among populations and some heterogeneity within populations in the distribution of alleles at two variant loci of mytilus edulis. although the causes of this variation remain obscure, some speculations have been made on the basis of available data. a cline for aspartate aminotransferase (aat) alleles has been observed on the pacific coast. an immigration model has been proposed to explain the atypical ecological and genetic character ... | 1975 | 1217757 |
| comparison of metal accumulation in mussels at different local and global scales. | cadmium and zinc uptake from the dissolved phase, assimilation efficiency (ae) from the dietary phase, and body burden as well as clearance rate were measured in green mussels, perna viridis, and blue mussels mytilus edulis, m. galloprovincialis and mytilus trossulus. perna viridis was collected from four sites differentially enriched with trace metals in hong kong and blue mussels were collected from different climatic zones, i.e., subarctic and temperate, to allow comparisons with the more tro ... | 2003 | 12558172 |
