Gonad stages were described and classified into the following: developing, mature, partially spawned, redeveloping, and spent based on the predominant morphological appearance of the gametes (Tuaycharoen 1984; Rose et al. 1990; Ledesma- Fernandez and del Norte-Campos 2004; Kang et al. 2007). keywords: clam; female; gonad; july; reproductive; spawning; stages; undulata cache: sciencediliman-2081.pdf plain text: sciencediliman-2081.txt item: #76 of 458 id: sciencediliman-2082 author: Manalo, Laureen Morillo; Campos, Annabelle del Norte title: Filtration and respiration rates of the short-necked clam Paphia undulata (Born, 1778) (Mollusca, Pelecypoda: Veneridae) under laboratory conditions date: 2011-03-15 words: 4964 flesch: 65 summary: To show the relationship between filtration rate and size in terms of dry weight, filtration rates (L h-1ind.-1) were plotted against dry weights (g) of the organisms.

Invertebrates make up almost 96% of known metazoan species (Brusca and Brusca 2003 c. in Winston 2007), and museum collections (both living and fossil) provide a valuable resource in studying their diversity and evolutionary relationships (Winston 2007). keywords: museum; specimens cache: sciencediliman-4443.pdf plain text: sciencediliman-4443.txt item: #254 of 458 id: sciencediliman-4444 author: Garcia, Christel Bohn T.; Talavera, Ma.
