Calcification on an Unstable Substrate: Marginal Growth in the Moilusk Pecten diegensis
George R Clark ;
Date 8 Mar 1974
Journal Science, 183 (4128), 968-970
AbstractObservations of the growing margin of Pecten diegensis show that calcification can occur on an unstable substrate, although this initial shell material is quite disordered. Later growth on the inner surface of the disordered material soon becomes ordered, which suggests that the calcification process benefits from the stability of a mineralized substrate, but does not utilize the substrate as a physical or stereochemical template.
