Growth and mortality of oysters (Crassostrea gigas, Thunberg 1793) in Sacca degli Scardovari (Italy)
This study assessed growth and mortality of oysters reared in suspended ropes, and tested the effect of rope emersion time throughout fattening (8 months; October 2016-June 2017). A total of 4,320 triploid oysters were stuck to 36 ropes (320 oysters/rope) and subjected to three emersion systems (12...
