Improving Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) production through selective breeding

Creator:

Evans, Sanford, 1968-

Abstract:

Shellfish growers have expressed interest in developing high-yielding oyster strains through selective breeding. This dissertation has three objectives to help determine the effects of genetic and environmental variation on production traits (body weight, survival, and yield) of Pacific oysters grown in the Pacific Northwest. Objective 1: Determine if relative family...

Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) Production Through Selective Breeding. Abstract approval: Christot
Effect of high pressure processing on the survival of Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains in pure culture and Pacific oysters

Creator:

Calik, Hakan

Abstract:

Different strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) in broth cultures and Vp-inoculated live Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) were subjected to high pressure processing (HPP) at 241, 276, 310, and 345 MPa. Results showed Vp numbers were reduced by HPP in both pure culture and whole oysters. Vp inactivation was dependent on...
