Antiviral Defense and Innate Immune Memory in the Oyster
The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is becoming a valuable model for investigating antiviral defense in the Lophotrochozoa superphylum. In the past five years, improvements to laboratory-based experimental infection protocols using Ostreid herpesvirus

The distribution and ecological effects of the introduced Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg, 1793) in Northern Patagonia [PDF]
In this work we studied the actual coverage, distribution patterns and ecologic effects of the introduced oyster Crassostrea gigas 20 y after their introduction to the Northern Argentinean Patagonia (Bahia Anegada; 39º50´S to 40º40´S and 61º59 to 62º28 W)

Non‐lethal genotyping of oysters is challenging due to the invasive nature of traditional tissue sampling methods. We compared four different sampling techniques on juvenile Eastern oysters, monitoring survival and DNA quality and quantity to identify the optimal approach.

Invasion trajectory of Pacific oysters in the northern Wadden Sea [PDF]
Invasion trajectories of introduced alien species usually begin with a long establishment phase of low abundance, often followed by exponential expansion and subsequent adjustment phases.

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 ...

REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS IN HATCHERY-PRODUCED EASTERN OYSTER, CRASSOSTREA VIRGINICA (GMELIN) [PDF]
The eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica Gmelin 1791) has great ecological and economic importance but populations have declined, especially in Chesapeake Bay, to historically low numbers.

Farming triploid bivalves has gained favor due to their enhanced growth rate and effective sterility; however, they may exhibit lower thermal tolerance, a concern due to climate change. Environmental conditions influence ectotherm performance, resulting in natural intraspecific variation across geographic regions through local adaptation, developmental

Oysters contain significant amounts of the zinc element, which may also be found in their proteins. In this study, a novel zinc-binding protein was purified from the mantle of the oyster Magallana hongkongensis using two kinds of gel filtration ...

Phenotypic and Genetic Consequences of Size Selection at the Larval Stage in the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) [PDF]
The life histories of oysters in the genus "Crassostrea", like those of most marine bivalves, are typified by high fecundity and low survival in nature. Rearing conditions in hatcheries however ensure optimized density, diet, and temperature.

Faggrunnlag stillehavsøsters (Crassostrea gigas)
Mapping and surveillance of the invasive species pacific oyster are important elements to be able to choose the right management decisions. Collecting of pacific oysters along the coast will be very expensive and can based on our judgment, only be done in selected localities. If stock development increases, an alternative is commercial harvesting.
