SETTLE Project

The SETTLE project will focus on conditioning and settlement as key events during the hatchery production of native European species, the flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) and the great scallop (Pecten maximus). The project aims to foster year-round production of spat in hatcheries.

Calcification by Marine Organisms (CalMarO)

CALMARO is an Initial Training Network (ITN) - Marie Curie Actions, supported by funding under the People Specific Programme of the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community. The Project is an initiative of the Marine European Network for Training of Researchers (MENTOR).

REPROSEED

Research to improve production of seed of established and emerging bivalve species in European hatcheries

Experimental setup for determining settlement by scallops

SYNCHRON Project

Improving scallop (Pecten maximus L.) spat production: Metamorphosis-inducing cues enhancing settling success.
