Sustainable Management of High-Impact Non-Native Molluscs and Their Potential Commercial Importance in the Eastern Adriatic Sea
Molluscs, especially bivalves, play an important role in food production and are the dominant group in mariculture worldwide. They are also an important component of the marine ecosystem, influencing the food web and nutrient cycling, as well as creating and modifying habitats. In the Mediterranean...
