Size-dependent variations on the nutritional pathway of Bathymodiolus azoricus ...

Bathymodiolus azoricus is a mussel from vent fields in the south-west of the Azores Triple Junction (Mid-Atlantic Ridge-MAR). Experimental evidence indicates that B. azoricus is a mixotrophic organism, which obtains energy from a dual endosymbiosis and filter-feeding. Yet the relative contribution of symbiosis and filter-feeding to B. azoricus nutrition is still unclear. To address this question, we developed a...
