description | The pearl oyster Pinctada radiata is an iconic species in the Arabian Gulf, which is one of the ecosystems most at risk in the world because of the multiple sources of pollution it faces. Alongside chemical pollution, the Gulf is ranked first with regard to noise and light pollution, and pearl oyster populations are at risk. The impact of these latter types of pollution on marine invertebrates is still poorly known. We used the difference in noise and brightness that can exist between a very quiet room without artificial lighting and a standard laboratory room equipped with a standard aquarium as a testbed to explore the possible impact of noise and light pollution on the behavioral and biological traits of Pinctada radiata without added chemical exposure. During an experiment that lasted 2.5 months, we analyzed their grouping behavior, valve activity, biological rhythm, growth rate and spawning activity. In the standard aquarium kept in the laboratory room, the oysters dispersed instead of regrouping as in their natural environment, regrouping which was observed in the quiet room. They stayed closed longer, the opening amplitude of their valves was systematically lower, and in the closed position, they squeezed their valves more tightly when subjected to noise and light pollution. Their daily opening rhythm was strongly structured by switching the electric light on and off, and females showed significantly less egg-laying behavior. In conclusion, seemingly innocuous human activities can lead to very significant alterations in pearl oyster behavior. We propose that it could have significant effects on populations and ecosystems. |
