  • The Effect of Density on the Cultivation of the Native Mangrove Oyster Crassostrea Tulipa (Lamarck, 1819)
    Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 48(5): 855-868, 2020 The effect of density on the cultivation of Crassostrea tulipa 855 DOI: 10.3856/vol48-issue5-fulltext-2446 Research Articles The effect of density on the cultivation of the native mangrove oyster Crassostrea tulipa (Lamarck, 1819) Lincon José Brunetto1, Carlos Henrique Araújo de Miranda Gomes1, Cassio de Oliveira Ramos1 Francisco Carlos da Silva1, João Paulo Ramos Ferreira1 1 1 Graziela Cleusa Vieira & Claudio Manoel Rodrigues De Melo 1Laboratory of Marine Mollusks, Department of Aquaculture, Federal University of Santa Catarina Florianopolis, Brazil Corresponding author: Claudio Manoel Rodrigues De Melo ([email protected]) ABSTRACT. In Brazil, the cultivation of Crassostrea tulipa (= C. gasar) is gaining in importance. However, little is known about the best conditions for farming. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of oyster density (50, 100, 200, and 400 mL of seeds/0.15 m2; 100, 200, 300, and 400 ind/0.10 m2 (basket area) and 30, 60, 120, and 180 ind/0.13 m2 (lantern floor area) in nursey, juvenile and adult phase, respectively) on the growth and survival of C. tulipa in farm cultivation. In the nursery phase, the 50 mL density resulted in smaller oyster size, as expressed in height and height/length (H/L) ratio (1.31 ± 0.03 mm), compared to other densities, while the length and width was equal among densities. The animals' individual average weight and H/L ratio were negatively influenced by a density of 100 ind/0.10 m2 or bigger. However, animals grown at the density of 200 ind/0.10 m2 did not differ statistically in length or width from those grown with 100 ind/0.10 m2.

Trace metals can reach high concentrations in sediments and also in aquatic organisms by bioaccumulation through the food chain. Six heavy metals (Hg, Zn, Pb, Fe, Mg and Cu) were collected and investigated from Abu Hummus, El Behara. The concentration of Hg was high in winter as 2.3µg/g in sediment. The Zn concentration was high in summer in sediment as 8.1µg/g. The Pb concentration was high in winter in water as 3.3µg/l. The concentration of Fe in sediment was high in summer as 492 µg/g. The concentration of Mg was high in sediment as 408µg/g. The concentration of Cu was high in summer in sediment as 301µg/g. The mean concentrations of Fe in the present study are within the permissible limits of law 48/1982 (<1 mg/l) and the guideline of (WHO, 1993) which is <1 mg/l. The mean concentration level of copper is within the permissible limits of law 48/1982 (<1.0 mg/l).

  • (Crassostrea Tulipa) Fishery in Coastal Ghana
    Maritime Studies https://doi.org/10.1007/s40152-019-00132-7 RESEARCH Coping with climate variability and non-climate stressors in the West African Oyster (Crassostrea tulipa) fishery in coastal Ghana Sandra Akugpoka Atindana1 & Olajire Fagbola1 & Emmanuel Ajani1 & Elliot Haruna Alhassan1 & Akwasi Ampofo-Yeboah1 Received: 25 April 2018 /Accepted: 16 January 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract In Ghana, coastal shell fishery resources, particularly oysters, are envisaged to be heavily affected by changes in climate. The potential impacts will result from sea level rise, salinity changes and ocean acidification. The Whin Estuary, located at longitude 10 48 W and latitude 40 56 N of the Western Region of Ghana, is one of the few pristine coastal wetlands in the region with live oyster populations and a potential for fisheries sustenance. This paper examines adaptation strategies to changes in climate among female and male oyster collectors, constraints in the choice of adaptation strategies and land use stressors affecting the oyster fishery in Ghana. Participatory approaches such as participant observation, focus group discussions and key informant interviews were used to gather data on the indigenous knowledge of the fishery and climate variability. In the fishery, 60 % of female oyster collectors adapt to prolonged dry periods through value chain addition practices and 45 % are practicing other indigenous practices. The men adapt to changes in climate mainly by diversification. Kendall tau-b correlation analysis performed on adaptation practices showed no significant correlation (r = −0.667; p = 0.174) between the adaptation practices ranked by male and female oyster collectors. There was a strong significant correlation (p = 0.05; r = 0.619) between constraints in the choice of adaptations among fishers.

While the subfamily is regarded as one of the most morphologically adapted groups of symbiotic crabs, the functionality of these adaptations in relation to their lifestyles has not been reviewed before. Available information on the ecomorphological adaptations of various pinnotherine crab species and their functionality was compiled in order to clarify their ecological diversity. These include the size, shape, and ornamentations of the carapace, the frontal appendages and mouthparts, the cheliped morphology, the ambulatory legs, and the reproductive anatomy and larval characters. The phylogenetic relevance of the adaptations is also reviewed and suggestions for future studies are made. Based on an updated list of all known pinnotherine symbiont–host associations and the available phylogenetic reconstructions, it is concluded that, due to convergent evolution, unrelated species with a similar host interaction might display the same morphological adaptations.

Faculté des Sciences, Université de Lomé, BP.1515, Lomé-Togo The study aimed to estimate population parameters of the mangrove oyster, Cassostrea gasar Dautzenberg (1891), such as asymptotic length (L∞), growth coefficient (K), and recruitment pattern and their relationship to environmental factors. 420 samples were measured for standard length and analyzed using FISAT II. Frequency histograms showed the existence of two recruitments per year with a single spawning event occurring at the study sites in May-June at the start of the rainy season when the salinity levels ranged between 10 and 18 ‰. Best growth performances were observed at Lake Zowla with the asymptotic length and growth coefficient reaching 85.10 mm and 10.86g yr-1, respectively. Growth model showed negative allometric growth (b <3), with an asymptotic weight (W∞) of approximately 10.86 g. Oyster reaches an average length of 8.17 cm after 8 months. Results also reveals that the presence of C. gasar in the Zalivé channel and in Lake Zowla is seasonal; indeed, by the end of the little rainy season (end of November), all oyster settlements at both sampling stations were eliminated, and only a few scattered individuals remained.
