Influence of Crassostrea gigas mixed with Ostrea edulis on the incidence of Bonamia disease

The effect of mixing Japanese oysters ( Crassostrea gigas) with flat oysters ( Ostrea edulis) in bags on the incidence of bonamiasis was tested with four proportions of C. gigas (0%, 25%, 50% and 75%) and two total densities (200 and 400 oysters per bag). At density 200, the survival rates of flat o...

Zusammenfassung:The effect of mixing Japanese oysters ( Crassostrea gigas) with flat oysters ( Ostrea edulis) in bags on the incidence of bonamiasis was tested with four proportions of C. gigas (0%, 25%, 50% and 75%) and two total densities (200 and 400 oysters per bag). At density 200, the survival rates of flat oysters, in 15 months, increased significantly from 20% without C. gigas to 35% with 75% C. gigas; with 400 oysters per bag, survivals were lower. This apparent effect of C. gigas might be the result of correlative variations in the number of O. edulis per bag.
