Development of Crassostrea belcheri (Sowerby, 1871), Crassostrea iredalei (Faustino, 1932) and inter-specific cross spats at different salinity
Hybrids between Crassostrea belcheri (CB) and C. iredalei (CI) were produce to evaluate their aquaculture potential. These inter and intra-specific crosses consisted of CB♀XCB♂, CI♀XCI♂, CB♀XCI♂ and CI♀XCB♂. To evaluate their environmental preferences, the spats of 40 day-old were cultured in 10, 20 and 30 ppt for 30 days. Hybrids showed significantly higher (p<0.05) shell increment when cultur...
متن کاملTropomyosin, the major tropical oyster Crassostrea belcheri allergen and effect of cooking on its allergenicity
BACKGROUND Many types of shellfish including oysters are sometime cooked before ingestion and it has been demonstrated that cooking may affect the allergenicity of food. Therefore, the aim of our present study is to identify major and minor allergens of tropical oyster (Crassostrea belcheri) and to investigate the effect of different cooking processing on the allergenicity of this oyster. MET...
متن کاملCharacterization of Antibacterial Protein from Hemolymph of Oyster Crassostrea belcheri
The hemolymph of oyster Crassostrea belcheri was found to possess significant antibacterial activity against Vibrio harveyi, V. vulnificus and V. cholerae. Hemolymph was partially purified by gel filtration chromatography on Sephacryl S-200 and fractioned into four parts: P1, P2, P3 and P4. The P3 showed the highest antibacterial activity against V. parahaemolyticus, V. cholerae, V. alginolytic...
متن کاملModeling food choice in the two suspension‐feeding bivalves, Crassostrea virginica and Mytilus edulis
In marine ecosystems, benthic invertebrates contribute to many ecological functions, including the regulation of energy fluxes. This is the case for suspension-feeding organisms that often dominate the macrobenthos in coastal areas. Dense populations of benthic filter-feeders interact strongly with nearshore waters, removing phytoplankton, producing biodeposits, and cycling dissolved nutrients ...
متن کاملCrassostrea gigas
Scientific names: Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg 1793), Ostreidae, Bivalvia Synonyms: Gryphaea angulata Lamarck 1819; Ostrea gigas Thunberg 1793; Ostrea laperousii Schrenk 1861; Ostrea talienwhanensis Crosse 1862. Note: The Portuguese oyster Crassostrea angulata is a name often used for this species. According to genetic studies it was shown that Crassostrea angulata is likely a strain of Crassost...
