Effects of toxic algal blooms on bay scallops

Posted October 16th, 2005 by scalloplady65
Nantucket had a blood of Alexandrium fundyensis this summer. I am wondering if this could have affected the larvae and/or broodstock, since we did not find seed from an early summer spawning.

I have recently completed laboratory studies on Karenia brevis effects on bay scallop larvae and will present the results in a poster at the upcoming meeting. I hope to see you there and we can discuss the results and how they might apply to A. fundyensis.
