The hatchery culture of bivalve mollusks depends on feeding with fresh microalgae which represent up to 50% of the production costs. We investigated the growth performance of juvenile Ostrea edulis and Ruditapes decussatus under 15% and 30% replacement ...

Update of the risk assessment of brominated phenols and their derivatives in food
Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA to update its 2012 risk assessment on brominated phenols and their derivatives in food, focusing on five bromophenols and one derivative: 2,4,6‐tribromophenol (2,4,6‐TBP), 2,4‐dibromophenol (2,4‐DBP), 4‐bromophenol (4‐BP), 2,6‐dibromophenol (2,6‐DBP), tetrabrominated bisphenol S (TBBPS), tetrabromobisphenol S

Abstract Marine plankton capable of photosynthesis and predation (“mixoplankton”) comprise up to 50% of protist plankton and include many harmful species. However, marine environmental management policies, including the European Union Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the USEPA, assume a strict dichotomy between autotrophic phytoplankton ...

The Pinna nobilis, a Mediterranean mollusc, has suffered population declines due to a mortality event linked to the parasite Haplosporidium pinnae, though some populations show resilience. This study developed a molecular multiplex‐PCR method using species‐specific primers to accurately identify P. nobilis, P. rudis, and their hybrids.

Assessing the effectiveness of marine nature‐based solutions with climate risk assessments
Despite the increasing demand for nature‐based solutions (NBS) to mitigate climate change impacts, we still lack a comparable way to estimate their effectiveness. Here we present a methodology for the estimation of the effectiveness of marine NBS based on the difference of risk estimated when they are applied and when they are not. The effectiveness is

Reliable inferences of interspecific hybridization require the use of diagnostic Mendelian markers and, preferably, multilocus approaches in order to distinguish true hybrids and backcrosses from artifacts that may be generated by other types of markers,
