VASA-induced cytoplasmic localization of CYTB-positive mitochondrial substance occurs by destructive and non-destructive mitochondrial effusion respectively in early and late spermatogenic cells of the Manila clam --Manuscript Draft--Manuscript Number: PROT-D-20-00300 Full Title: VASA-induced cytoplasmic localization of CYTB-positive mitochondrial substance occurs by destructive and non-destructive mitochondrial effusion respectively in early and late spermatogenic cells of the Manila clam

Commercial importance and ability to live in a wide range of salinities have made the common mussel, Mytilus trossulus, a relevant model to study modulation of larval growth and development. We investigated the effects of various salinities combined with neomycin and ampicillin application on Mytilus larvae survival and growth. Both neomycin and ampicillin enhanced trochophore and veliger survival under condition of low salinity. The average veliger size was increasing in accordance with the increase of salinity. In case of neomycin treatment 3.6% of the larvae reached the pediveliger stage. No abnormalities of larval morphology of the FMRFamide and 5-HT systems occurred after 7 days of culturing with both antibiotics.
