- Title
Salinity influences hatchery production of the giant clam Tridacna crocea.
- Authors
Militz, Thane A.; Southgate, Paul C.
- Abstract
Reduced salinities negatively impact fertilization success and early larval development of the giant clam Tridacna gigas (Cardiidae: Tridacninae). While veligers were capable of survival through to settlement at 20‰, all veligers perished before settlement at 15‰.
