Comparative growth, condition, and survival of juvenile Crassostrea gigas and C. corteziensis oysters cultivated in summer and winter

Ciencias Marinas, 2010
We report differences in growth, condition, and survival of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas and the Cortez oyster C. corteziensis cultivated in a semi-arid lagoon in northwestern Mexico (Las Guásimas, Sonora) during summer and winter, periods ...

What do you mean, “seascape restoration”? Definitions and global practice

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration of marine ecosystems is scaling up, fuelled by the growing recognition of the ecological and socio‐economic benefits sustained by nature and the need to recover what has been lost or degraded. Parallel to this, there is an increasing trend toward “multi‐species,” “multi‐habitat,” and “seascape” restoration projects ...

Systematic and Taxonomic Revision of Ostrea stentina Species Complex (Bivalvia: Ostreidae): New Insights From a Topotype‐Based Integrative Approach

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cryptic marine species complexes with plastic morphology, shallow divergence, and broad distributions are among the hardest taxonomic problems in zoology. The Ostrea stentina complex, reported across the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Indo‐Pacific, is a striking example. We present the first topotype‐anchored integrative revision of this complex,

Synergy between Seasonality and Climatic Anomaly and their Effects on the Growth of Oysters Cultivated in the Amazon Coast

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the synergistic effect between the Amazon seasonality and the El Niño climate anomaly (2015/16 event) on the growth of oysters cultivated on the Amazon coast in comparison with the growth of oysters in a normal year ...

The Use of Suspended Substrate to Facilitate Juvenile Mussel Recruitment in Restored Mussel Reefs

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
Mussel reefs have been depleted globally by overfishing and habitat degradation, but the advent of reef restoration has produced promising results in terms of adult mussel survival and biodiversity enhancement. However, an absence of juvenile recruitment into restored mussel reefs is regularly cited as jeopardising their persistence and expansion. This

Overcoming restoration paradigms: value of the historical record and metapopulation dynamics in native oyster restoration

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Restoration strategies for native oyster populations rely on multiple sources of information, which often conflict due to time- and space-varying patterns in abundance and distribution.

On the edge: assessing fish habitat use across the boundary between Pacific oyster aquaculture and eelgrass in Willapa Bay, Washington, USA

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020
Estuaries are subject to diverse anthropogenic stressors, such as shellfish aquaculture, which involve extensive use of estuarine tidelands. Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas aquaculture is a century-old practice in US West Coast estuaries that ...

Distribution and Abundance of the Bioeroding Sponge Cliona sp. in Oyster Populations of Ostrea chilensis Across New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
Bioeroding sponges are recognised pests in shellfish fisheries, as their boring activity can reduce market value, contribute to oyster mortality and cause economic losses. In New Zealand, bioeroding sponges in the shell‐burrowing alpha form are frequently observed in shells of the flat oyster Ostrea chilensis, a historically and culturally important ...

Population genomics of eastern oysters, Crassostrea virginica, in a well-mixed estuarine system: advancement and implications for restoration strategies

BMC Genomics
Eastern oysters, Crassostrea virginica, are historically a keystone species in many of the estuaries in which they reside, providing critical ecosystem services.
