Mortality among juvenile Crassostrea gigas has been occuring during the summer months since 1995 and is now considered to be a real problem for French oyster culture. The aim of this study was to standardise the stress that could be applied to Crassostrea gigas spat. In initial experiments in 1998, the weight of individual spat and the duration of a heat shock at 50°C in freshwater, adapted for oysters of between 500 and 2000 mg, were built into a model to obtain 50% mortality. However, the precision was low (50%) and will need to be improved in the future. Following this, hatchery-produced juveniles weighing 10 to 500 mg were subjected to heat shock at 45°C in heshwater ; the duration of the shock was calculated based on a model built in 1997. The results... |
