Abstract Dietary macroalgae are known to contribute directly and indirectly to the gut microflora of abalone. However, certain farms require macroalgae to be made biosecure to eliminate microbiota and reduce their risk of acting as a vector for potential disease before being included as a dietary ingredient in aquafeeds.

ABSTRACT Epigenetic modifications to DNA are proposed to underpin plastic responses to environmental change, and the manner in which DNA methylation contributes to plasticity likely differs among tissues. However, few studies have investigated tissue‐specific DNA methylation responses to ecologically relevant environmental stressors in natural settings.

Abundance, biomass and size structure of eastern oyster and hooked mussel on a modular artificial reef [PDF]
: Restoration efforts with native Eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, in Chesapeake Bay have been extensive, and there has been a continuing search for reef structures that will be effective under a range of environmental conditions.

A verified habitat suitability model for the intertidal rock oyster, Saccostrea cucullata.
There is growing interest to restore oyster populations and develop oyster reefs for their role in ecosystem health and delivery of ecosystem services. Successful and sustainable oyster restoration efforts largely depend on the availability and selection

Esterification of vertebrate-type steroids in the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica)
Characteristics of acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA):steroid acyltransferase from the digestive gland of the oyster Crassostrea virginica were determined by using estradiol (E2) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) as substrates. The apparent Km and Vmax values for esterification of E2 with the six fatty acid acyl-CoAs tested (C20:4, C18:2, C18:1, C16:1, C18:0 ...

Life Cycle Assessments of Bivalve Aquaculture: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of bivalve aquaculture systems indicates generally low environmental impacts across mussel, oyster, and clam production. For a functional unit of 1 t live weight bivalves at farm gate, median impacts were 385 kg CO2‐eq for climate change, 0.25 kg PO43−‐eq for eutrophication, 0.014 kg N‐eq for marine eutrophication, 1.86 kg ...

Eastern oyster response to bacteria in larval stages.
Oysters are described as keystone species serving an important ecological role. As filter-feeders they help in maintaining water quality. Oyster reefs provide refuge and support to different organisms. The eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, native to

Eastern oyster bacterial community beta diversities correlated with time of harvest.
Non-metric multidimensional scaling was used to visualize the dissimilarities between seasonal bacterial communities of the Eastern oyster. Dissimilarities were calculated via (A) unweighted UniFrac and (B) weighted UniFrac beta diversity metrics.
