Some biochemical and physiological aspects of growth and gametogenesis in Crassostrea gigasand Ostrea edulisgrown at sustained elevated temperatures

Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg) and Ostrea edulis L. were grown at sustained temperatures of 12°, 15°, 18° and 21°C for a period of 19 weeks. Regular assays of weight specific ammonia excretion rate were made, following which animals were sacrificed for estimation of dry meat weight, dry shell weight,...
