THE CASE FOR SEQUENCING THE PACIFIC OYSTER GENOME

open access: yesJournal of Shellfish Research, 2005
Abstract An international community of biologists presents the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas as a candidate for genome sequencing. This oyster has global distribution and for the past several years the highest annual production of any freshwater or marine organism (4.2 million metric tons, worth $3.5 billion US).

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Differential Mortality and High Viral Load in Naive Pacific Oyster Families Exposed to OsHV-1 Suggests Tolerance Rather than Resistance to Infection

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas, are one of the most productive aquaculture species in the world. However, they are threatened by the spread of Ostreid herpesvirus-1 (OsHV-1) and its microvariants (collectively “µvars”), which cause mass mortalities ...

Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach. Community‐based restoration can play a crucial role in achieving this goal, yet there remains limited understanding of what makes these projects effective and sustainable.

Biochemical Polymorphism in the Pacific Oyster-III

open access: yesNIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1978
Genetic variations have previously been described in the myogen, est erases, tetrazolium oxidase, and leucine arninopeptidases in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. Some 900 specimens (35 lots) of the Pacific oyster, sampled from the wild populations off the Pacific and the Japan Sea coasts of Hokkaido, and off Iwate and Akita Prefectures, as well ...

Identifying thermally tolerant bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) source populations for restoration under climate change

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Kelp forests are declining in many parts of the world due to climate change and other stressors. Restoration is one solution to return kelp forests to places where they have been lost, yet continually warming oceans may necessitate the identification of thermally tolerant strains to facilitate the long‐term success of kelp restoration.

Influence of environment on the pathogenesis of Ostreid herpesvirus-1 (OsHV-1) infections in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) through differential microbiome responses

open access: yesHeliyon, 2019
The oyster microbiome is thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of mass mortality disease in Pacific oysters, associated with OsHV-1. As filter-feeders, oysters host a microbiota that can be influenced by the estuarine environment.

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

open access: yesRestoration 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 ...
