Global warming and increased atmospheric CO2 are causing the oceans to warm, decrease
in pH and become hypercapnic. These stressors have deleterious impacts on marine …

In this study, we analyzed the combined effect of microalgal concentration and temperature
on the shell growth of the bivalve Pinctada margaritifera and the molecular mechanisms …

Ocean acidification and global climate change are predicted to negatively impact marine
calcifiers, with species inhabiting the intertidal zone being especially vulnerable. Current …

Pearl oysters have high economic value. These species have gained much interest of
research in growth, producing disease resistant and viable stocks for aquaculture facilities …

The responses of embryos and juveniles of the pearl oyster, Pinctada imbricata, to variation
in temperature and salinity were investigated to assist hatchery production and farming …

The effect of temperature on the development, growth, survival and settlement of Perna

The black-lipped pearl oyster (Pinctada margaritifera) is extensively farmed in French
Polynesia to produce black pearls. For a sustainable management of marine resources …

The present study determined the effect of larval stocking density on larval yield (number of
live larvae at the end of the experiment), competent larvae (number of live larvae at the end …

The black-lip pearl oyster (Pinctada margaritifera) is cultured extensively to produce black
pearls, especially in French Polynesia atoll lagoons. This aquaculture relies on spat …

Tetraploid oysters are of rising aquacultural importance because they can be used to
produce 100% triploid seeds. Nevertheless, notable gaps in the understanding of the …
