Development of a nature-based solution for mitigation of Pacific oyster summer mortality: use of the intertidal zone to improve resilience to environmental stressors

Frontiers in Marine Science
In recent years, Pacific oyster growers in British Columbia (BC), Canada have experienced devastating losses due to summer mortality syndrome. While anecdotal evidence suggests that intertidally-grown oysters may fare better during mass mortality events ...

The Effects of Microplastics and Additives on Ecosystem Function, Structure, and Signaling

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Microplastics disrupt ecosystem signaling through olfactory traps, altering predator–prey signaling and disrupting microbial communication and quorum sensing. ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) and their associated chemical additives are pervasive contaminants whose ecological impacts extend beyond organismal toxicity to fundamentally alter ecosystem ...

On-site biofouling removal enhances the nutritional and gustatory quality of oysters from suspension aquaculture and the recovery of essential biomolecules for human consumption

Aquaculture Reports
We experimentally tested the effects of on-site biofouling removal (BR) via heat treatment on the biomolecule contents of Pacific oysters and the bay-scale recovery of these biomolecules through the harvest of farmed oysters from suspension aquaculture ...

Associations between farming practices and disease mortality of Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas in a Mediterranean lagoon

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2014
We present the first large-scale, high-resolution spatial and temporal pattern of disease mortality caused by Ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) that has affected Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas in France every year since 2008, in relation to local farm use.

Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) shell growth duration in a year in Bohai Bay and implication for its carbon sink potential

China Geology
: Oyster is a bivalve mollusk widely distributed in estuarine and shallow sea environments. Its growth and burial process is a carbon sequestration and storage process.

Pacific oysters and parasites [PDF]

, 2017
Human-aided introductions of species affect natural communities and ecosystems worldwide. These biological invasions can be considered to be ‘experiments in nature’ to study general ecological and evolutionary processes at large spatial and temporal scales.Studies on biological invasions have mostly been focussing on competitive or predatory ...

Exploration of Response Mechanisms in the Gills of Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) to Cadmium Exposure through Integrative Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Analyses

Animals
Marine mollusks, including oysters, are highly tolerant to high levels of cadmium (Cd), but the molecular mechanisms underlying their molecular response to acute Cd exposure remain unclear.
