Pulau Gosong merupakan salah satu wilayah perairan yang telah dilindungi oleh pemerintah melalui Surat Keputusan Menteri Kelautan Dan Perikanan Republik Indonesia No.78/KEPMEN-KP/2020. Salah potensi terdapat di adalah habitat populasi berbagai jenis biota kima. Ancaman terhadap kima semakin meningkat akibat pemanfaatan berlebih dilakukan manusia. Penelitian ini dengan tujuan untuk mengidentifik...

The purpose of this study is to investigate summer mortality of the cupped oyster, Crassostrea gigas, in relation to culture practices in the traditional oyster production region of Marennes-Oléron (France). Four oyster rearing conditions, varying culture location (“on-“ or “off-bottom”), and site depth (65% to 80% daily immersion termed “deep” or 45% to 65%, termed “shallow”) were studied to c...

The Sydney rock oyster (Saccostrea glomerata) (SRO) is an oyster species that only occurs in estuaries along Australia’s east coast. The SRO industry evolved from commercial gathering of oyster in the 1790s to a high production volume aquaculture industry in the 1970s. However, since the late 1970s the SRO industry has experienced a significant and continuous decline in production quantities an...

We used split-beam acoustic techniques to observe free-swimming of jumbo squid Dosidicus gigas during 4 cruises in the Gulf of California. Four-dimensional spatio-temporal data revealed that at night in shallow water, jumbo squid were using ascending, spiral-like swimming paths to emerge from extremely dense aggregations, and were likely foraging on potential prey that were found overlapping in...

The queen conch Eustrombus gigas is an important fisheries resource in the Caribbean region. In Cuba Island the studies about this resource are very scarce and particularly in the Southeastern regions of the country. With the aim to get important fishery information about this gastropod, adult Queen Conch density and frequency of reproductive activity were evaluated in Cabo Cruz, Cuba, during 2...

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 gigas, by producing two sets of progenies in 2002 (Generation 2) and three sets of progenies in 2003 (Generation 3). A strict between-family approach was used and resistance of these selected progenies to summer m...

Light-sensitivity is important for mollusc survival, as it plays a vital role in reproduction and predator avoidance. Light-sensitivity has been demonstrated in the adult Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, but the genes associated with light-sensitivity remain unclear. In the present study, we designed experiments to identify the genes associated with light-sensitivity in adult oysters. First, w...

Three different forms of casts are produced by earthworm species of rubber plantation. These are tower-like casts (Metaphire houlleti, Eutyphoeus gammiei, Eutyphoeus gigas, Eutyphoeus scutarius, Eutyphoeus assamensis, Eutyphoeus callosus, Eutyphoeus comillahnus, Eutyphoeus turaensis, Eutyphoeus sp.), composite irregular casts (Pontoscolex corethrurus, Drawida papillifer papillifer) and large gl...
