Production of oyster seed in a hatchery system
Although oyster culture dates back to First century B.C., the development of hatchery techniques for the production of oyster seed on a year round basis is a recent innovation. Since early 1950s attempts for large scale production of oyster seed have been initiated. Loosanoff and Davis (1952), Dupuy...
