Oyster Reef Restoration as a Fisheries Management Tool
Global declines in fish stocks over the past several decades have been caused by a combination of factors, including overfishing, habitat destruction, and water quality degradation.

Biocontrol for Shrimp Disease: Comprehensive Review and a Bacterial Disease Biocontrol Practice
ABSTRACT Biocontrol is a key strategy for disease control, as it is environmentally friendly and widely applicable. This review elaborates on biocontrol in aquaculture, particularly in shrimp culture. Biocontrol in shrimp culture mainly relies on four strategies: (i) direct kill pathogen by Bdellovibrio or bacteriophages; (ii) suppression of intestinal

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 ...

Restoring the European Flat Oyster: understanding the steps of restoration and its benefits
Until two centuries ago, flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) reefs constituted a major habitat in European coastal waters. But this native species and its habitat have almost disappeared from many locations during the 19th and 20th centuries as a consequence of overfishing, epidemic diseases, predation, competition for space and food, habitat degradation ...
