Energy balance of a laboratory population of Ostrea Edulis (L)
… of a laboratory population of juvenile Ostrea edulis, fed on Tetraselmis seucica at 15°C and 35%, were investigated. The results show that filtration rate is a power function of body size and is dependent on food concentration. The relationship between food concentration and filtration …

Genomic tools for the management of European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) stocks
… the genetic characterization of distinct O. edulis populations is a prerequisite for effective management and conservation strategies. While previous efforts to measure genetic diversity and structure among O. edulis stocks have provided valuable insights, they have relied on a limited number …

The endangered European native oyster Ostrea edulis (L) and creation of Marine Conservation Zones: a win – win scenario for fisheries and conservation?
The abundance and distribution of Ostrea edulis and O. edulis beds have been contracting for many hundreds of years as a result of anthropogenic factors, leaving behind the legacy we observe today of a fragmented and severely impacted habitat. In 1995, O. edulis (and their associated beds) was …

Community ecology and population dynamics of the European native oyster (Ostrea edulis) in Essex, UK: A baseline for the management of the Blackwater, Crouch, Roach and Colne Estuaries Marine Conservation Zone
… remaining stock of the European native oyster, Ostrea edulis. Despite this, little is known about the current distribution, abundance and status of the O. edulis populations within this protected area, with no studies documenting epibenthic species associations with naturally occurring native …

Seasonal gonadal changes in two bivalve mollusks in Tomales Bay, California
… A small population of the European oyster, Ostrea edulis Linnaeus (1758), is being raised experimentally at the Tomales Bay Oyster Company. The histological study of the seasonal gonadal changes of these two species, in Tomales Bay, is described below.</p><p>The study of gametogenesis in O. …

Microencapsulated diets to improve the productivity of bivalve shellfish aquaculture for global food security
… farmed bivalve, the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis), providing a foundation for research on specific industry challenges. The second phase of the thesis assessed the effectiveness of microencapsulated feeds to tackle major bivalve hatchery bottlenecks in juvenile growth and broodstock …

History and status of oyster exploitation and culture in South Africa, and the role of oysters as vectors for marine alien species
… are consumed. Edible wild oysters include Striostrea margaritacea, Saccostrea cucullata, Ostrea atherstonei and 0. algoensis and all occur along the South and East coasts. These oysters were, or are, exploited commercially, recreationally and via subsistence fishers with S. margaritacea being …

Ricerca, mediante tecniche di proteomica, di biomarcatori proteici utili nella valutazione della qualità degli alimenti di origine animale
… commercial interest (Chamelea gallina, Mytilus edulis, Ostrea edulis, Crassostrea gigas, Salmo salar, Gadus morhua). These studies have evaluated the effects of important physic and chemical parameters variations (temperature, xenobiotics like drugs, hydrocarbons and pesticides) on cells …

Bulk Ceramic-Based Biologically Inspired Composites: Design, Fabrication and Testing
… curved prism motifs in the proximal parts of the Ostrea edulis shells result in a significant reduction in mechanical robustness due to the growth-related restrictions arising from the simultaneous normal and lateral growth of shells. Moreover, we show that although the addition of a nacre-like …
