Improving Large‐Scale Population Estimates and Assessments of the Ecological Importance of Three Epifaunal Bivalve Species by Combining Distribution and Abundance Models [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Epifaunal bivalves include reef‐building organisms that provide several important ecological functions in coastal marine environments. Evaluating the distributional patterns and population sizes is key in assessing the total and relative contribution of ...

Mapping oysters on the Pacific coast of North America: A coast-wide collaboration to inform enhanced conservation.

PLoS ONE, 2022
To conserve coastal foundation species, it is essential to understand patterns of distribution and abundance and how they change over time. We synthesized oyster distribution data across the west coast of North America to develop conservation strategies ...

The European native oyster, Ostrea edulis, in Wales, a historical account of a forgotten fishery

Aquatic Living Resources, 2023
The history of the European native oyster has been documented for numerous countries within its natural range. However, the history of Ostrea edulis in Wales remains conspicuously absent from current UK and European peer-reviewed publications.

European native oysters and associated species richness in the presence of non‐native species in a southern North Sea estuary complex

Conservation Science and Practice, 2021
There are growing calls to restore populations of European native oysters (Ostrea edulis), on the premise that restored populations will support a range of ecosystem services with an emphasis placed on restored oyster habitats promoting biological ...

Analysis of the core bacterial community associated with consumer-ready Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica)

PLoS ONE, 2023
Shellfish, such as the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica), are an important agricultural commodity. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of the native microbiome of oysters against exogenous challenges by non-native pathogens.

Variation in Survival and Gut Microbiome Composition of Hatchery-Grown Native Oysters at Various Locations within the Puget Sound

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
The Olympia oyster (Ostrea lurida) of the Puget Sound suffered a dramatic population crash, but restoration efforts hope to revive this native species. One overlooked variable in the process of assessing ecosystem health is association of bacteria with ...

Colonisation of the non-indigenous Pacific oyster crassostrea gigas determined by predation, size and initial settlement densities. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Survival of incipient non-indigenous populations is dramatically altered by early predation on new colonisers. These effects can be influenced by morphological traits, such as coloniser size and density.

Population dynamics of the European native oyster in a Marine Conservation Zone exposed to unregulated harvesting

Aquatic Living Resources, 2023
The implementation of closed zones as fishery management tools have been shown to be successful in the augmentation of habitat restricted species. A concerted restoration effort is currently being focused on the European native oyster throughout its ...
