The scallop Argopecten purpuratus is a species of importance for aquaculture in Chile and Peru, but in recent years, they have decreased their growth rates and experienced massive mortalities potentially associated with pathogenic infections ...

Size‐based survival of cultured Argopecten purpuratus (L, 1819) under severe hypoxia [PDF]
AbstractDuring recent years, mass mortalities of cultured scallops became more frequent in Peruvian bays. One of the main drivers related to these mortalities was hypoxic events. This study was designed to understand the hypoxia phenomenon in these bays and to assess how the Peruvian scallop, Argopecten purpuratus, can cope with reduced oxygen levels ...

Mitochondrial genome of the Peruvian scallopArgopecten purpuratus(Bivalvia: Pectinidae) [PDF]
The mitochondrial genome of the Peruvian scallop Argopecten purpuratus was determined. The length of the mitochondrial coding region is 15,608 bp. A typical bivalve mitochondrial composition was detected with 12 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 21 transfer RNA genes, with the absence of the atp8 gene.

The contribution of aquaculture systems to global aquaculture production
Abstract Since 2000, aquaculture became well‐integrated into the global food system. Aquaculture systems are highly diverse, producing globally equal amounts of fed and extractive species. In Asia and Africa, inland aquaculture provides the bulk of aquaculture production, while in the Americas, Europe, and Oceania, marine aquaculture dominates.

Bay scallops (Argopecten irradians) are a commercially important bivalve species for fisheries and aquaculture in China, the USA, Peru and Chile, but their small size and serious inbreeding depression restrict the sustainable development of their ...

Abstract Marine mussels are ubiquitous and their tough byssal threads allow for the formation of expansive, age‐aggregated mats known as mussel matrices which can host marine invertebrates and algal macro‐benthic communities playing an important role in food‐web dynamics.

Abstract For hundreds of years, the color diversity of Mollusca shells has been a topic of interest for humanity. However, the genetic control underlying color expression is still poorly understood in mollusks. The pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera is increasingly becoming a biological model to study this process due to its ability to produce a large

European eel, Anguilla anguilla, larval culture faces a bottleneck during the transition to exogenous feeding. To stimulate gut‐priming, in the present study, prebiotics (AgriMOS, mannan‐oligosaccharides, and β‐(1,3 and 1,6)‐poly‐D‐glucose), probiotics (Bactocell, Pediococcus acidilactici), and synbiotics (AgriMOS + Bactocell) were administered to ...
