The potential strategies to determine the current environmental health status (EHS), through bio-monitoring approaches were investigated. The levels of chemicals (i.e. metals, fatty acids, stable isotopes) in environmental compartments (from POM to top- predators) were assessed and their consequences at different levels of organization were discussed, e.g. contaminant transfer through the food web, potential value as nutritive seafood and/or risk for seafood consumers. As result, an integrated approach for the assessment of risks and benefits for consuming marine species from Peru was addressed. In order to test whether the Peruvian seafood consumption could pose a human health risk due to the accumulated metal levels of these products, metal bioaccumulation was studied throughout the food chain (chapter 2). From this study it became apparent that in 6 of the studied marine edible species, around 10-20% of the molluscs (e.g. Argopecten purpuratus, Bursa ventricosa…) and 30-40% of the crustaceans (e.g. Romaleon setosum, Hepatus chilensis…) exceeded the maximum residual levels (MRLs) for human consumption in inorganic As and Cd. Integrated risk indices, e.g. target hazard quotient (THQs), total hazard indices (HIs), provisional tolerable weekly intake (PTWI) did not exceed their respective limits, however the target cancer risks (TRs) for inorganic As were always higher than the threshold (1x10-6), therefore an actual cancer risk is present. The results confirmed that Peruvian marine species are loaded with As and Cd and that MRLs and TRs were 1 again higher than the thresholds for some species (from the 54 studied species), such as the crab H. chilensis, the mantis shrimp Squilla sp., the mussel Semimytilus algosus, and the snail B. ventricosa, among others (chapter 4). Nevertheless, some marine species are also high in beneficial compounds: long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs): EPA, DHA, ARA; and micro-nutrients: Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn. The north of Peru was characterized by marine species with the highest LC-PUFAs (up to 180 mg EPA/100g), followed by those from the center and southern regions. Moreover, the species considered as potentially edible or non- edible species (e.g. C. sexdecimdentatus, C. filiformis, C. plebejus) are promising future foods due to their high nutritional values (high LC- PUFAs and micro-nutrients). Based on risk indices, it was concluded that the consumption of the estimated safe amounts of seafood could lead to a high contribution (up to 80% of the recommended values) of beneficial LC-PUFAs and micro-nutrients in Peruvian populations (chapter 4). Based on nutritional indices, the gastropods (e.g. B. ventricosa) were scored as the least beneficial species for human consumption. The quality of marine species as seafood was further monitored in the frame of the complexity of the Peruvian marine ecosystems, which are driven by the northern Humboldt Current system (NHCS), and simultaneously impacted by oceanographic drastic variations (i.e. El Niño event). The intensities of El Niño phenomenon effect on fatty acids and metal contamination were monitored and analyzed using the Peruvian scallop A. purpuratus in different regions of Peru (chapter 3). 2 A. purpuratus was identified as potential bioindicator species to be used along the coast of Peru. Gills, digestive gland and intestine were the tissues where metal accumulation was the highest in A. purpuratus. Fatty acids were good biomarkers when annual (El Niño effect) comparisons were performed, while metals allowed to discriminate amongst locations (degree of pollution). The application of a series of biomarkers (i.e. metals, fatty acids) is key to understand the response of organisms to natural and/or anthropogenic stressors. However, cost- benefit relationships should be considered for a long-term and sustainable scallop monitoring program in Peruvian water domains. Food web interactions and metal transfer in Peruvian marine ecosystems were integrated to understand the flow of

The synthesis of heat-shock proteins (HSPs) is a major mechanism of stress tolerance in animals, including scal- lops, and HSP expression contributes considerably to cellular energy demand. Therefore, repro- ductive investment may limit the availability of energy (in terms of ATP) for the expression of HSP in organisms exposed to environmental stress. We evaluated the stress response capacity of adult Argopecten purpuratus scallops to high temperature and hypoxia. Stress response capacity was assessed through gene expression (for temperature stress) and protein induction of 70 kD HSP at 3 reproductive stages: immature, mature and spawned. We also evaluated the effect of reproduc- tive status on the cellular ATP provisioning capacity through citrate synthase activity. Immature scallops exposed to thermal stress showed 1.3- and 1.5-fold increases in hsp70 mRNA and HSP70 protein levels, respectively, and those exposed to hypoxia doubled their level of HSP70 compared to non-stressed immature scallops. However, following gonad maturation and spawning, hsp70 mRNA increased by only 0.49- and 0.65-fold, respectively, after thermal stress and HSP70 protein levels of scallops exposed to thermal and hypoxia stressors did not differ from those of non- stressed animals.

  • Physiological Effects and Biotransformation of Paralytic
    PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS AND BIOTRANSFORMATION OF PARALYTIC SHELLFISH TOXINS IN NEW ZEALAND MARINE BIVALVES ______________________________________________________________ A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences in the University of Canterbury by Andrea M. Contreras 2010 Abstract Although there are no authenticated records of human illness due to PSP in New Zealand, nationwide phytoplankton and shellfish toxicity monitoring programmes have revealed that the incidence of PSP contamination and the occurrence of the toxic Alexandrium species are more common than previously realised (Mackenzie et al., 2004). A full understanding of the mechanism of uptake, accumulation and toxin dynamics of bivalves feeding on toxic algae is fundamental for improving future regulations in the shellfish toxicity monitoring program across the country. This thesis examines the effects of toxic dinoflagellates and PSP toxins on the physiology and behaviour of bivalve molluscs. This focus arose because these aspects have not been widely studied before in New Zealand. The basic hypothesis tested was that bivalve molluscs differ in their ability to metabolise PSP toxins produced by Alexandrium tamarense and are able to transform toxins and may have special mechanisms to avoid toxin uptake. To test this hypothesis, different physiological/behavioural experiments and quantification of PSP toxins in bivalves tissues were carried out on mussels ( Perna canaliculus ), clams ( Paphies donacina and Dosinia anus ), scallops ( Pecten novaezelandiae ) and oysters ( Ostrea chilensis ) from the South Island of New Zealand. Measurements of clearance rate were used to test the sensitivity of the bivalves to PSP toxins. Other studies that involved intoxication and detoxification periods were carried out on three species of bivalves ( P.

SUMMARY: Southern geoduck is the most long-lived bivalve species exploited in the South Atlantic and is harvested by divers in San Matías Gulf. Except preliminary data on growth and a gametogenic cycle study, there is no basic information that can be used to manage this resource in terms of population structure, harvesting, mortality and inter-population compari- sons of growth. Our aim was to analyze the spatial distribution from survey data, population structure, growth and mortality of several beds along a latitudinal gradient based on age determination from thin sections of valves. We also described the spatial allocation of the fleet’s fishing effort, and its sources of variability from data collected on board. Three geoduck beds were located and sampled along the coast: El Sótano, Punta Colorada and Puerto Lobos. Geoduck ages ranged between 2 and 86 years old. Growth patterns showed significant differences in the asymptotic size between El Sótano (109.4 mm) and Puerto Lobos (98.06 mm).

Imposex syndrome is the superimposition of a pseudopenis and vas deferens in the reproductive system of female gastropods. This anomalous virilization is attributed to a hormonal imbalance induced by tributyltin (TBT), an organotin compound, present in antifouling paints. This study analyzes the severity, extent, degree and indices of imposex in a population of Thaisella chocolata from Caldera Bay, Atacama Region, Chile. Sex was determined by biopsy of the gonad from 180 specimens and imposex by the concurrence of ovarian, capsule gland, vas deferens and pseudopenis in abnormal females. The proportion of females affected with imposex was estimated using the formula described by Gibbs et al. (1987). The degree of the syndrome progress was classified using five scales of imposex and Vas Deferens Sequence Index (VDSI), Relative Penis Index (RPSI) and Relative Penis Size Index (RPSI) were calculated. Results show that 100% of the females of T. chocolata from Caldera Bay suffer imposex. Macroscopic analysis revealed atrophy of the vagina and femenine glands. Some females lacked ingestive gland and seminal receptacle. Cytological disorders as modification of internal epithelium, occurrence of acellular areas, lack of basal lamina and presence of pyknotic nuclei, and overlapping of prostate tissue in the three females’ glands were found.

Tel: +8613589227997; E-mail: [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0002-6931-7394 Abstract Background: The Peruvian scallop, Argopecten purpuratus, is mainly cultured in southern Chile and Peru was introduced into China in the last century. Unlike other Argopecten scallops, the Peruvian scallop normally has a long life span of up to 7 to 10 years. Therefore, researchers have been using it to develop hybrid vigor. Here, we performed whole genome sequencing, assembly, and gene annotation of the Peruvian scallop, with an important aim to develop genomic resources for genetic breeding in scallops. Findings: A total of 463.19-Gb raw DNA reads were sequenced. A draft genome assembly of 724.78 Mb was generated (accounting for 81.87% of the estimated genome size of 885.29 Mb), with a contig N50 size of 80.11 kb and a scaffold N50 size of 1.02 Mb.

  • Forecasting Mussel Settlement Using Historical Data and Boosted Regression Trees
    Vol. 11: 625–638, 2019 AQUACULTURE ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS Published December 5 https://doi.org/10.3354/aei00337 Aquacult Environ Interact OPENPEN ACCESSCCESS Forecasting mussel settlement using historical data and boosted regression trees Javier Atalah*, Barrie M. Forrest Cawthron Institute, Private Bag 2, Nelson 7010, New Zealand ABSTRACT: Many aquaculture sectors internationally, most notably for the cultivation of bi- valves, rely almost completely on wild-caught juveniles (‘spat’) to stock farms, with poor ‘catches’ representing one the biggest constraints on global production. An example of this practice is green-lipped mussel Perna canaliculus aquaculture in New Zealand, where the industry in the main growing region has been monitoring P. canaliculus settlement for almost 40 yr. This practice involves deploying settlement arrays across the region to guide the places and times to place spat- catching rope. Using a subset of these data spanning 25 yr (1993−2018), we identified regional spatio-temporal patterns of P. canaliculus spat settlement. Boosted regression tree (BRT) models were used to forecast settlement at 2 different sub-regions with consistent high catch yields. BRT models confirmed a strong seasonal influence on settlement, with highest predicted settlement levels coinciding with the main P. canaliculus spawning period (late summer to autumn). Positive relationships were detected between settlement and the occurrence of positive temperature anomalies, easterly winds, periods of large tidal range and Southern Ocean Oscillation Index val- ues associated with La Niña episodes. The models were able to forecast P. canaliculus settlement with excellent prediction accuracy based on time of year and environmental conditions 1 mo prior to collection.

They are settled mainly on the continental shelf as benthic and sedentary animals due to their heavy protective shell. They can stand a wide range of environmental conditions. They are found in the whole trophic chain and are particle feeders, herbivorous, carnivorous, and predators. Exploited mollusc species are numerous. The main groups of gastropods are the whelks, conchs, abalones, tops, and turbans; and those of bivalve species are oysters, mussels, scallops, and clams. They are mainly used for food, but also for ornamental purposes, in shellcraft industries and jewelery. Consumed species are produced by fisheries and aquaculture, the latter representing 75% of the total 11.4 millions metric tons landed worldwide in 1996. Aquaculture, which mainly concerns bivalves (oysters, scallops, and mussels) relies on the simple techniques of producing juveniles, natural spat collection, and hatchery, and the fact that many species are planktivores.
