Species which may act as vectors or reservoirs of diseases covered by the Animal Health Law: Listed pathogens of molluscs. [PDF]

EFSA J, 2023
Abstract Vector or reservoir species of five mollusc diseases listed in the Animal Health Law were identified, based on evidence generated through an extensive literature review, to support a possible updating of Regulation (EU) 2018/1882. Mollusc species on or in which Mikrocytos mackini, Perkinsus marinus, Bonamia exitiosa, Bonamia ostreae and ...

The Roles of Plasticity and Selection in Rapid Phenotypic Changes at the Pacific Oyster Invasion Front in Europe. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Invasive species present significant management challenges worldwide due to their ability to rapidly adapt to novel environments. The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, a globally distributed invasive species, arrived in western Sweden in 2006 but has not yet colonised the low salinity waters of the Baltic Sea, presumably because low salinities

New insights from the oyster Crassostrea rhizophorae on bivalve circulating hemocytes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Hemocytes are the first line of defense of the immune system in invertebrates, but despite their important role and enormous potential for the study of gene-environment relationships, research has been impeded by a lack of consensus on their ...

Molecular identification, phylogeny and geographic distribution of Brazilian mangrove oysters (Crassostrea) [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2010
Oysters (Ostreidae) manifest a high degree of phenotypic plasticity, whereby morphology is of limited value for species identification and taxonomy. By using molecular data, the aim was to genetically characterize the species of Crassostrea occurring ...

Absence of norovirus contamination in shellfish harvested and commercialized in the Northeast coast of Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2020
Norovirus (NoV) is the main cause of gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. Although NoV spreads mainly from person to person, it is estimated that a large proportion of NoV outbreaks are caused by foodborne transmission.

Sustainable management and improvement of genetic resources for aquaculture

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 54, Issue 2, Page 364-396, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Effective genetic management of the ~700 aquatic species cultured globally should be addressed for aquaculture to make a significant contribution towards meeting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. This article aims to identify the current status and challenges relating to the management of farmed aquatic genetic resources (AqGR) and to ...
