“…Presence of large organisms can lead to increasing macrobenthic biomasses (Desroy et al, 2002;Ganmanee et al, 2004;Gappa and Sueiro 2007), as it occurred in the eastern studied regions due to a higher occurrence of molluscs and echinoderms. The presence of polychaetes with low individual biomass in Bandargah was due to the sewage effluent from Bushehr city, which was comparable to what was found in the west coast of India (Ingole et al, 2008).…”

The spatial distribution of the macrobenthic community was studied along the Iranian coasts of Bushehr province during January and February 2013. Samples were collected with van Veen grab from intertidal (0 m) and subtidal (5 m and 10 m depths) zones at 16 stations designated in 6 transects, including 4 main harbors (Genaveh, Bandargah, Rostami and Asaluyeh) and 2 creeks (Farakeh and Shif). A total of 17 groups (taxa) of macrobenthos were identified, of which the most dominant assemblages belonged to Mollusca, Annelida and Arthropoda. Abundance and biomass are significantly higher in some stations and depths than others, which could be correlated with combination of factors. The average macrofaunal abundance and biomass ranged from 450 to 4380 indm -2 and its from 9 to 165 gm -2 , respectively. The highest abundance and biomass were observed at 10 m and intertidal depths, respectively.

“…Recruitments performances were, however, low and no obvious seasonal pulse was detected (Leung, 2003). It has further been reported that hypoxic events attributable to eutrophication have caused summer mortalities of benthos and declines in species abundance and diversity in the Tolo Harbour area (Wu, 1982), and may reduce the settlement of new recruits of some benthic species (Ganmanee et al , 2004). Such hypoxic events may also impact upon I. cumingi , accounting for the observed variation in reproductive success, and this too may be explained by the sweepstakes concept.…”

Variation in life history characteristics is believed to play an important role in dispersal and thus shaping the population and genetic structure of marine invertebrates. The genetic structure ofIbla cumingi, a small intertidal stalked barnacle that broods lecithotrophic larvae, was evaluated using 145 random amplified polymorphic DNA markers on 100 individuals from five locations across Hong Kong waters. Shallow genetic structure was observed along open-coast shores, and there was no indication of isolation by geographical distance. A significant genetic divergence, however, was observed between samples inside and outside Tolo Harbour, a semi-enclosed, sheltered and estuarine bay located in the north-eastern quadrant of Hong Kong, indicating the presence of a genetic sub-structuring pattern. In addition, relatively lower genetic diversities were described for samples inside Tolo Harbour than those from open-coast shores. This could be associated with an increase in inbreeding events attributed to local settlement caused by larval retention. This study provides an insight into how the interaction of life history and local, enclosed, hydrographic conditions could result in a substantial genetic structuring ofI. cumingiover a meso-scale geographical distance.

“…Volutharpa perryi, a kind of marine gastropod mollusks in genus Volutharpa of family Buccinidae, inhabiting shallow soft mud or mud sandy seabeds, is mainly distributed in Japan, Korea and Northern Yellow Sea of China (Zhang 2008). Many researches had described V. perryi as fishery resource (Ganmanee et al 2004;Zhang et al 2015), but few reports about this species at the molecular level were available (Hou et al 2013). In this study, we determined the complete mitochondrial genome of V. perryi for the first time, expecting to contribute to the better understanding of this species and provide information for the taxonomic and phylogenetic study of the genus Volutharpa.…”

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Volutharpa perryi has been determined for the first time. The mitogenome is of 15 255 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. The overall base composition is 29.6%, 38.6%, 15.6% and 16.2% for A, T, C and G, respectively. The 13 PCGs of V. perryi and other 12 mollusk species were used for phylogenetic analysis by maximum-likelihood method, and the phylogenetic tree demonstrated the close relationship of V. perryi to species of Buccinoidea. The results are expected to provide useful molecular data for species identification and further phylogenetic studies of genus Volutharpa.
