Globally, non-native species (NNS) have been introduced and now often entirely replace
native species in captive aquaculture; in part, a result of a perceived greater resilience of …

Molluscs are among the organisms affected by ocean acidification (OA), relying on carbon
for shell biomineralization. Metabolic and environmental sourcing are two pathways …

Securing economically and ecologically significant molluscs, as our oceans warm due to
climate change, is a global priority. South eastern Australia receives warm water in a …

High temperature is an important environmental stressor leading to summer mass mortality
of oysters. Significant survival heterosis in summer were observed in hybrids between two …

Microbiomes can both influence and be influenced by metabolism, but this relationship
remains unexplored for invertebrates. We examined the relationship between microbiome …

A salt-tolerant cellulase secreted by a marine Bacillus sp. SR22 strain with wide resistance
to temperature and pH was purified and characterized. Its approximate mass was 37 kDa …

Transgenerational plasticity (TGP) has been identified as a critical mechanism of acclimation
that may buffer marine organisms against climate change, yet whether the TGP response of …

The frequency and duration of short-term extreme climatic events, such as marine heat
waves (MHWs), are increasing worldwide. The rapid onset of MHWs can lead to short-term …

Molluscan shell formation is a complex energy demanding process sensitive to the shifts in
seawater CaCO 3 saturation due to changes in salinity and pH. We studied the effects of …

It remains unknown how molluscs will respond to oceans which are increasingly predicted to
be warmer, more acidic, and heavily polluted. Ocean acidification and trace metals will likely …
