Blockade of light-sensitive conductance in hyperpolarizing photoreceptors of the scallop.
These demarcate the so-called "scallops", or commissural leaflets.
Both arteries were removed with their respective sinuses as scallops for translocation.
Either removal of a large scallop or further dissection is necessary in these circumstances.
The same care is needed, therefore, with dissection and removal of a large aortic scallop.
The main fishing activities are trawling for demersal fish, nephrops and scallops with some seasonal trawling for pelagic species.
It would therefore be difficult to set a close season on a national basis which would suit scallop stocks in all areas.
With this in mind, a range of possible options for scallop conservation are being looked at.
