Biomineralisation in molluscs encompasses the intricate processes by which these organisms synthesise their highly organised, calcified shells. Central to this process are shell matrix proteins ...

Have you ever heard of a nudibranch? They're colorful mollusks with no shells and you can see them at the Bailey-Matthews ...

And as the body of the mollusk grows, it will add more and more shell material, making the shell larger. - [José] The shapes are super varied and there's a lot of engineering that goes into that ...

An international team of experts has resolved long-standing questions about the evolutionary history of mollusks, one of the ...

Unraveling How an Extinct Mollusk Got Its Strange Shell Scientists devised a mathematic model that helps explains how Nipponites, some of the wonkiest ammonites, built their shells. Share full article ...

"I'm grateful for whatever reason the snail did not sting me and to have this second chance," Beckylee Rawls told Newsweek ...

These genetic instructions are particularly special because each mollusk shell has different combinations of “ancient” and “novel” genes. Like a fingerprint, mollusk shells have a distinct identity. A ...

For over 160 years, the mollusc's evolutionary tree has remained ambiguous and incomplete. But after three years spent sampling genes, researchers Casey Dunn and Stephen Smith presented a firm new ...

Shell colour variation in mollusks is a multifaceted trait governed by complex genetic mechanisms that orchestrate pigment biosynthesis, tissue differentiation and biomineralisation.

It also can really mess with a mollusk’s sex life. While shell collectors and certain religions revere left-coiling shells, since roughly 90 percent of mollusks have right-coiling ones the left ...
