DOI: 10.1016/j.aaf.2020.03.011
Abstract: Abstract Ploidy manipulation, such as triploidy, in farmed oysters has been used as a tool to enhance oyster quality throughout all seasons because triploid oysters allocate less energy to gametogenesis, and therefore are deemed better… read more here.

Abstract: While high levels of siltation are known to be deleterious to eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica), the collective effect of suspended and bedded sediment is understudied from the perspective of oyster farming and bed restoration. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/are.12988
Abstract: When harvested, oysters represent a removal from the ecosystem of nutrients such as nitrogen (N) and carbon (C). A number of factors potentially affect nutrient content, but a quantitative understanding across the geographic range of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281747
Abstract: Shellfish, such as the Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica), are an important agricultural commodity. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of the native microbiome of oysters against exogenous challenges by non-native pathogens. However, the taxonomic makeup… read more here.

DOI: 10.1656/058.018.0303
Abstract: Abstract Non-consumptive effects of predators on prey populations have received increased interest in recent years. For Crassostrea virginica (Eastern Oyster), much of the focus has been on induced morphological defenses (e.g., shell thickening). Here, we… read more here.
