Dietary Exposure of Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) Larvae to Compromised Microalgae Results in Impaired Fitness and Microbiome Shift

The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is the world’s most cultivated oyster and seed supply is heavily reliant on hatchery production where recurring mass mortality events are a major constraint. Outbreaks of bacterial infection via microalgal feed are frequently implicated in these mortalities. This...
