Differential Growth of the Mussels Perna perna and Perna viridis (Bivalvia: Mytilidae) in Suspended Culture in the Golfo de Cariaco, Venezuela

2009-04-01

Abstract excerpt

We evaluated the growth of mussels Perna perna and Perna viridis in suspended culture in the Golfo de Cariaco in Venezuela. Juveniles were cultured for up to 13 mo on cultch strings suspended from longline, with monthly sampling for determination of shell length and dry weights of shell and soft tissues. Water temperature, oxygen, salinity, chlorophyll a, seston, and shell fouling were also monitored. In both spec...
