Katechis, Charles (Chase) (2015-12-10)
The focus of this study was on tributaries of the Middle Chattahoochee River where Shoal Bass Micropterus cataractae and Chattahoochee Bass Micropterus chattahoochae are experiencing declines, mainly due to anthropogenic ...

Comparing triploid and diploid growth and mortality in farmed oysters, Crassostrea virginica, in the northern Gulf of Mexico 

Wadsworth, Pandora (2018-02-05)
The significance of the triploid advantage, in terms of growth and survival, varies across studies and environmental conditions. A meta-analysis was performed with 30 studies using chemically induced triploids and triploids ...

Effects of Environmentally Relevant PFOS Concentrations on Unionid Bioaccumulation, Benthic-pelagic Coupling, and Gene Expression 

Strozier, Amanda (2021-08-03)
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent organic chemicals that have high energy carbon and fluorine bonds that make them resistant to metabolic breakdown and degradation. These substances are emerging ...

Improving High Soy Feed Formulations for Florida Pompano Trachinotus carolinus through Phytase Supplementation. 

Roe, Charles (2016-08-01)
The economically sound and sustainable aquaculture of many marine species in the coming years is dependent on the reduction of fish meal and the increased inclusion of plant protein sources. Florida Pompano perform well ...

A metabolic approach to assessing interactions between climate change, agrochemicals, and freshwater mussel reproduction 

Gibson, Rebecca (2019-04-16)
Unionid mussels are a fundamental part of stream ecology yet are one of the most threatened aquatic organisms due in part to habitat loss, stream fragmentation, and deterioration. The increasingly relevant effects of climate ...

Optimization of feed management for Pacific White shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) 

To, Van (2016-05-05)
Manufactured feed is one of the important components of commercial shrimp aquaculture, providing nutritional balance for farmed shrimp. However, it is also the primary source causing problems related to water quality. ...

Test of the effects of geography, gear type, and culture techniques on Vibrio risks associated with farm-raised oysters 

Pruente, Victoria (2020-11-16)
During the off-bottom aquaculture growing process for the eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, farmers routinely remove the oysters for tumbling and desiccation. These routine handling practices improve oyster quality ...

Variation in morphology and physiology of introduced populations of the Virile Crayfish, Faxonius virilis Hagen 1870 

Weber, Jennifer (2018-04-23)
Crayfish often show high levels of morphological variation between and within populations. Studies have shown that environmental factors can play a role in determining external morphology. Increased levels of phenotypic ...
