Stocking Density and Diet of Two Oyster (Crassostrea gasar and Crassostrea gigas) Seeds in Fluidized Bed Bottle Nursery System

Fishes
Crassostrea is the most farmed oyster genus worldwide and has significant economic and social impacts with environmental benefits. Hatchery oyster seed production is a highly costly phase, and a fluidized nursery system can help reduce this cost and ...

Evaluation of methods for reducing epibionts during farming of the mangrove oyster Crassostrea gasar (Adanson, 1757)

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022
Due to the competition for food, space, oxygen and due to their role as diseases vector, epibionts can negatively affect oyster farming. We assessed the efficacy of six methods commonly used for the removal of epibionts from oyster shells during farming.

High‐Resolution Metabarcoding Reveals the Microbiome Dynamics of Mangrove Oysters (Crassostrea gasar) and Their Habitat

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The mangrove oyster (Crassostrea gasar) plays a key ecological role in Amazonian estuaries by filtering suspended organic particles, microalgae, phytoplankton, and bacteria, contributing to water quality and nutrient cycling. Its gut microbiota is shaped by complex interactions with the surrounding aquatic environment, reflecting the ...

USE OF ARTIFICIAL COLLECTORS TO OBTAIN OYSTER SEEDS IN BABITONGA BAY, SANTA CATARINA, BRAZIL

Boletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2020
The aim of this study was to evaluate oyster seed settlement pattern in artificial collectors affixed along Babitonga Bay (26°28’S – 48°50’W), Santa Catarina state, Brazil. Artificial collectors were installed in the upper tidal range (supralittoral), in

Oyster shells as archives of present and past environmental variability and life history traits: A multi‐disciplinary review of sclerochronology methods and applications

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 179-199, April 2025.
Abstract Oysters inhabit a variety of coastal and deep‐sea settings over a wide latitudinal range and have a role as ecosystem engineers. They also represent an important food source for humans since hunter‐gatherer times, which motivates interest in using oyster shells as environmental and life history archives.

Isolation and evaluation of local microalgal isolates as feed for larval rearing of Crassostrea tulipa towards optimisation of mangrove oyster seed production in Ghana

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 4, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract This study explored the potential of three local microalgal isolates as feed for oyster larvae in laboratory‐rearing experiments, towards the optimisation of seed production of Crassostrea tulipa to support its large‐scale farming along the West African coast. Three species of local microalgae—Rhodomonas sp., Nannochloropsis sp.
