Description

  • Content Description: Abstract: Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) were collected from South Bay, Texas and induced to spawn in the laboratory. These oysters were conditioned for 12 weeks on continuous flow using Matagorda Bay water. Spawning procedures used resulted in approximately two million larvae. Results indicate that Eastern oysters from South Bay, Texas can be successfully spawned in the laboratory using established procedures.
