Growth and survival for genetically improved lines of Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) and interline hybrids in Maine, USA

2012-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The production of cultured Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) in the northern New England states and Canadian Maritime Provinces is hampered by a short growing season, relatively cold water temperatures, and outbreaks of Roseovarius Oyster Disease (ROD). A breeding program at the University of Maine has produced the University of Maine Flowers Select (UMFS) line by selecting for oysters with improved cold wat...
