Do empty scallop shells make a suitable scallop spat collection substrate? / by L.-A. Davidson and R. Nowlan.: Fs97-6/3252E-PDF
"Both sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) and Iceland scallop (Chlamys islandica) spat have been collected in Chaleur Bay, Canada. By a Condition of Licence, the New Brunswick fish harvesters licenced to dredge scallops from Chaleur Bay must shuck their scallop catch at sea prior to entering port. Conversely, the scallop roe can be landed if permission is granted by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) via a protocol with fish buyers / processors. In Chaleur Bay, the fish harvesters usually discard the scallop shells at sea, on the bed from where they are fished. The purpose of this study is to investigate the suitability of empty scallop shells as substrate to collect scallop spat by comparing the settlement number of scallop spat on empty scallop shells to that on Netron™, the substrate used in traditional scallop spat collectors employed by aquaculturists”--Introd., p. 1.
