Book Description
Malacology refers to the study of molluscs, and is a sub-discipline of invertebrate zoology. After the arthropods, molluscs form the second-largest division of animals in terms of described species. It includes snails, slugs, clams, octopuses, squids and numerous other invertebrates, many of which have shells. Taxonomy, ecology and evolution are the prominent areas of research within the scope of malacology. It is also employed by archaeology to understand the evolution of the climate, the biota of the area and the usage of the site. Medical, veterinary and agricultural applications of molluscs are studied in applied malacology. Recent studies in the field focuses on the medicinal uses and conservation of molluscs. This book unravels the current studies in the field of organismal and molecular malacology. The various sub-fields of malacology along with scientific progress that have future implications are glanced at herein. This book is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of this important field.

Organismal and Molecular Malacology
Author: Sajal Ray
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535133055
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
The book with two sections represents the current trend of research in basic and applied malacology. In the section "Organismal Malacology", high-impact articles were contributed in the frontier areas of taxonomy, ecology and aquaculture of molluscs. Importance of mussel in water quality monitoring was highlighted. Biology and conservation of keystone molluscs were discussed from organismal point of view. "Cellular and Molecular Biology" section contains informative chapters on toxin-induced differential gene expression, spatiotemporal neural activity in olfactory processing in slug and immunity of hydrothermal vent molluscs. Biochemistry of cellulose degradation, lipid profile and C-reactive protein were elucidated in detail in separate chapters. This book represents a rich source of malacological information for the scientists, teachers and students.

Biomphalaria Snails and Larval Trematodes
Author: Rafael Toledo
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441970282
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
The purpose of this book is to provide an overview of the biology of the planorbid snail Biomphalaria glabrata mainly as related to the snail’s role as a host of larval trematodes . This snail is of great importance in medical and economic zoology as a vector of important trematode (fluke) diseases in human and veterinary medicine and in wildlife biology. Moreover, this snail is a useful model for numerous basic studies in biology and chemistry. A book that provides modern coverage of diverse topics from the molecule to the community of this snail as related to larval trematode parasitism is not available. This book should appeal to a wide audience of biologists, ecologists, biochemists, malacologists, parasitologists, public health workers, epidemiologists, and graduate and advanced undergraduate students in biomedical and allied health sciences.
