Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish the most exciting research with respect to information on the reproductive cycle for detecting changes in reproductive patterns and information on the growth patterns of shellfish depending on short- and long-term environmental changes.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Although Crassostrea nippona and C. gigas are occasionally found to be sympatric, little is known about the differences in tolerance against environmental stresses between species, which may potentially result in severe economic losses due to the neglect of species-specific biological characteristics in farming practices. Therefore, two independent and consecutive experiments were performed to evaluate the differences in temperature and salinity tolerance between C. nippona and C. gigas spat and determine the optimal environmental conditions for the aquaculture of C. nippona spat. The experimental results of dynamic treatment showed that the accumulative survival rate (ASR) of C. nippona spat was generally lower than that of C. gigas throughout temperature changes and salinity decreases, while the ASR of C. nippona spat was superior to that of C. gigas with increasing salinity. In addition, the daily growth rate (DGR) of both species was significantly inhibited at 18 °C and peaked at 25 °C with increasing temperature (p < 0.05) at each experimental salinity. At 32 °C, the survival rate (SR) of C. nippona spat was significantly lower than that of C. gigas on day 10 at all salinities tested (p < 0.05), whereas the difference in the SR between species at 35 psu gradually disappeared with prolonged stress time. The data indicated that C. gigas spat was suitable for rearing at temperatures of 25 and 32 °C at all salinity levels, except the combination of 32 °C and 35 psu. By contrast, combinations of 25 °C and salinities of 21–35 psu were considered as the optimal environmental conditions for the long-term culture of C. nippona spat. These present findings contribute to a better understanding of the tolerance of C. nippona spat to environmental stresses and suggest that particular attention should be paid to the inferior adaptability of C. nippona when farming in locations outside their natural habitats.
