Intertidal Grow‐Out Technique, Not Eelgrass (Zostera marina), Influences Performance of Pacific Oysters (Magallana gigas)

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Colocation of farmed shellfish in seagrass, although not permitted in some regions of the USA, has been proposed as a means to reach cobenefits of habitat and food production. Seagrass could benefit bivalves through protection from predation or abiotic stressors but conversely can reduce water flow and food delivery.

Comparative analysis of growth performance and survival of the West African mangrove oyster, Crassostrea tulipa (Lamarck, 1819) cultivated by suspension and bottom culture methods in the Densu Estuary, Ghana

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 233-242, June 2022., 2022
There was a significant difference (p < 0.001) between the growth rate of oysters cultured by suspension (1.02 ± 0.24 cm/month for oysters in the convex surface of the cultch, 1.00 ± 0.24 cm/month for those grown on the concave surface) and on the bottom (0.80 ± 0.23 cm/month and 0.81 ± 0.23 cm/month for oysters on convex and concave sides of the ...

Citizen scientists contributing to alien species detection: the case of fishes and mollusks in European marine waters

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Citizen science (CS) expands the spatial and temporal scale of alien species records. As such, it has been recognized as a complementary tool in alien species management and large‐scale biodiversity conservation. The present study assessed the contribution of CS to the recording of marine alien fishes and mollusks in European marine waters by ...

Byssal re‐attachment behavior in the winged pearl oyster Pteria penguin in response to low salinity levels

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 457-465, April 2021., 2021
Abstract The effect of low salinity levels on byssal re‐attachment behavior in Pteria penguin juveniles was observed in the laboratory. Juvenile pearl oysters were submerged in seawater blended to 8.0, 12.0, 16.0, 20.0, 24.0, 28.0, and 32.0 salinity levels for a period of 48 hr. The sub‐lethal salinity level was greater than 20.0 psu. Although salinity
