Recent change in spatial distribution of the European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) inferred from field data and empirical models of living oysters and empty shells [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Marine coastal areas are increasingly affected by human activities resulting in changes in species and habitat distributions. Understanding these patterns and its causes and consequences is important for conservation and restoration of such changing ...

The genome sequence of the European flat oyster, Ostrea edulis (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Wellcome Open Research, 2023 We present a genome assembly from an individual Ostrea edulis (the European flat oyster; Mollusca; Bivalvia; Ostreida; Ostreidae). The genome sequence is 894.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 10 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The

Chromosome‐level reference genome for European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2022 The European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) is a bivalve naturally distributed across Europe, which was an integral part of human diets for centuries, until anthropogenic activities and disease outbreaks severely reduced wild populations.

The phenology of the European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) and its environmental drivers [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) is an ecosystem engineer that structures reef habitats and is a major focus of restoration efforts across Europe, yet its biological rhythms in its habitat remain unknown. These rhythms synchronize physiology with

Chromosomal assembly of the flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) genome as a new genetic resource for aquaculture [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2022 The European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) is a native bivalve of the European coasts. Harvest of this species has declined during the last decades because of the appearance of two parasites that have led to the collapse of the stocks and the loss of ...

Identifying high‐density areas of oysters using species distribution modeling: Lessons for conservation of the native Ostrea edulis and management of the invasive Magallana (Crassostrea) gigas in Sweden [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Aim Understanding spatial patterns of the distribution of adult native oyster, Ostrea edulis, and the invasive Magallana (Crassostrea) gigas is important for management of these populations. The aim of this study was to use ensemble SDM’s to (a) identify
