Description The research activity of the group is focused on the analysis of the effect that both environmental variables (such as temperature, food availability and pollution) and inter-individual endogenous differences (genetic or epigenetic) exert on the growth capacity of bivalve mollusk populations of species with commercial interest (mussels, Manila clams, Carpet shell clam). The general aim of the research is to stablish the physiological bases of the endogenously determined differences in the growth rate and the genetic factors underlying such a differential physiological performance. |
