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 …

Broadcast spawners, like the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, experience substantial energy
expenditure during spawning due to extensive gamete release that can divert energy from …

Parallel diversification provides a proper framework for studying the role of natural selection
in evolution. Yet, empirical studies from ecological 'non‐model'species of invertebrates are …

Aquatic organisms such as bivalves are particularly sensitive to seasonal fluctuations
associated with climate changes. Energy metabolism management is also closely related to …

Tri-Butyl Tin (TBT) remains as a legacy pollutant in the benthic environments. Although the
toxic impacts and endocrine disruption caused by TBT to gastropod molluscs have been …

Microplastics (MPs) aging in natural ecosystems are caused by solar irradiation. Photo-aged
MPs in aquatic systems are a major threat to molluscs. In this study, polystyrene (PS) photo …

Abstract Throughout Europe, populations of Ostrea edulis have been in decline since the
1970s. Temperature has an important influence on physiological, biochemical and …

Reproduction is a fundamental process necessary for maintaining a population. However,
reproductive processes are sensitive to thermal stress which can cause bleaching in reef …

Phenotypic plasticity can improve an organism's fitness when exposed to novel
environmental conditions or stress associated with climate change. Our study analyzed …

The length-weight relationship and condition index of pokea clams in the Laeya River are
not fully known. This study was aimed to determine the length-weight relationship and …
