Oyster species suffer from numerous disease outbreaks, often causing high mortality.
Because the environment cannot be controlled, genetic improvement for disease resistance …

The conservation and active restoration of European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) populations
are a major focus of ecological restoration efforts to take advantage of the wide‐ranging …

Response to divergent selection for “high” and “low” survival during the summer period, from
July to October, was investigated in juvenile (six-month-old) Pacific oysters, Crassostrea …

In the early 1970s, the appearance of the protozoan parasite Marteilia refringens restricted
the production of the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis to subtidal areas. Ten years later a …

We investigated the quantitative genetics of plasticity in resource allocation between
survival, growth and reproductive effort in Crassostrea gigas when food abundance varies …

The decline of the European oyster Ostrea edulis across its biogeographic range has been
driven largely by over-fishing and anthropogenic habitat destruction, often to the point of …

there is a growing effort throughout europe to restore populations of native oysters (ostrea
edulis), with the ecological objective of enhancing ecosystem biodiversity and resilience. the …

Organisms of the genus Bonamia are intracellular protistan parasites of oysters. To date, 4
species have been described (B. ostreae, B. exitiosa, B. perspora and B. roughleyi) …

Clearance and oxygen consumption rates of Ostrea edulis were measured at different
temperatures (10–30° C) in individual animals of a total weight ranging from 5 to 120 g (0.1 …

The study investigated the susceptibility of a number of European populations of Ostrea
edulis to the protistan parasite Bonamia ostreae. The study was carried out at oyster …
