Eukaryotic organelles depend on nuclear genes to perpetuate their biochemical integrity. This is true for mitochondria in all eukaryotes and plastids in plants and algae. Then how do kleptoplasts, plastids that are sequestered by some... more
In this study, in order to analyze Mollusca species and determining their relationship with the sediment factors, sediment samples were gathered during spring, summer, autumn and winter 2012 from 12 stations (ranging in depths 5, 10, 20... more
The Phoenix talussnail was detected at 16 new localities, bringing the total to 20 within the greater Phoenix metropolitan area of northeastern Maricopa County. The species was detected within discontinuous ranges of central and north... more
The influence of Quarternary glacial cycles on the extant diversity of Holarctic species has been intensively studied. It has been hypothesized that palaeoclimatic changes are responsible for divergence events in lineages. A constant... more
In this study, a new evidence of Neogastropods of the family Costellariidae MacDonald, 1860 from the Miocene of Central Paratethys is presented. The finds of fossil shells of the genus Vexillum Röding, 1798 derives from the middle Miocene... more

The book represents descriptions and keys to identification of the 221 stylommatophoran species and also, in addition, the 10 more species of terrestrial molluscs form other taxa, which allow covering this ecological group completely. All... more
Catalase is an antioxidant enzyme that plays a significant role in protection against oxidative stress by detoxification of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). A gene coding for a putative catalase was isolated from the disk abalone (Haliotis... more

The biodiversity of early Eocene cerithioidean gastropods from a marine littoral environment, including mangroves with Nypa palms, is documented from the Figols group (FG) and the overlying Castigaleu group (CG), of the Ager and the... more
Gastropod and bivalve have a broad distribution in time and space, and mostly abundance as an individual. Generally, their habit was the sea, live along the shore or in shallow waters. The aims of this research were to examine the effect... more
