A common garden experiment supports a genetic component underlying the increased resilience of common cockle (Cerastoderma edule) to the parasite Marteilia cochillia [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications, 2023
The common cockle is a valuable bivalve species inhabiting the Atlantic European coasts. The parasite Marteilia cochillia has devastated cockle beds in the southern Galician (NW Spain) rias since 2012.

Are Marine Heatwaves Responsible for Mortalities of Farmed Mytilus galloprovincialis? A Pathophysiological Analysis of Marteilia Infected Mussels from Thermaikos Gulf, Greece [PDF]

Animals, 2022
Marine heatwaves (excessive seawater temperature increases) pose high risk to bivalves’ health and farming. The seawater temperature increase is responsible for various pathogen population expansions causing intense stress to marine organisms.

Transcriptional Alteration of Gene Biomarkers in Hemocytes of Wild Ostrea edulis with Molecular Evidence of Infections with Bonamia spp. and/or Marteilia refringens Parasites [PDF]

Pathogens, 2020
The European flat Ostrea edulis is highly susceptible to intracellular parasitic infections, particularly bonamiosis and marteiliosis. The defensive response of oyster to both bonamiosis and marteiliosis is typically mediated by hemocytes, which play a ...

Genetic markers associated with divergent selection against the parasite Marteilia cochillia in common cockle (Cerastoderma edule) using transcriptomics and population genomics data

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The common cockle (Cerastoderma edule) plays an important role in marine ecosystems and represents a valuable socioeconomic resource for coastal communities. In 2012, the cockle beds from Rı́a de Arousa (Galicia, NW Spain) were seriously decimated by the

Antioxidant Defense of Mytilus galloprovincialis Mussels Induced by Marine Heatwaves in Correlation with Marteilia Pathogen Presence

Fishes, 2023
Background: The effects of climate change negatively affect marine bivalves’ health. Lately, the intensity of marine heatwaves poses serious threats to the aquatic environment setting of high-risk bivalve farming.

Sustainable large‐scale production of European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) seed for ecological restoration and aquaculture: a review

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 1423-1468, June 2021., 2021
Abstract The conservation and active restoration of European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) populations are a major focus of ecological restoration efforts to take advantage of the wide‐ranging ecosystem functions and services this species provides. Accordingly, additional and new demands for seed oysters have arisen.

Return of the native: Survival, growth and condition of European oysters reintroduced to German offshore waters

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 30, Issue 11, Page 2180-2190, November 2020., 2020
Abstract The European oyster (Ostrea edulis) is under significant threat across its natural distribution range and even functionally extinct in some regions, such as in the German North Sea. Due to its ecological significance in terms of biodiversity and other ecosystem services, the species, and the habitat it provides, are defined as highly ...

Natural vs hatchery-based selection in common cockle Cerastoderma edule for resilience to Marteilia cochillia

Aquaculture Reports
The common cockle (Cerastoderma edule) is an ecologically and socioeconomically important bivalve species along the northeast Atlantic coast. Since 2012, cockle beds in Galicia (NW Spain) suffered severe declines due to Marteilia cochillia, particularly ...
