Aquaculture International, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 32(6), P. 7595 - 7627

Published: May 10, 2024

Abstract For more than a century, bacterial infections caused by Vibrio spp. have affected various species of mussels around the world, with limited insights into responses implemented against these infections. A combination chemical analyses and carefully selected biological endpoints from haemolymph tissues can be used to identify welfare status potentially protect aquatic ecosystems catastrophic health threats. Recent developments in biomarker identification tools, such as omics bioinformatics, been successfully applied evaluate effect environmental pollutants other chemicals on mussels. However, application biomarkers assess mussel is limited. This review describes available scientific literature research for -mussel interactions, those aspects related disease assessment, grouped exposure, effects, susceptibility. From review, it clear that when integrated are used, they provide deeper understanding relative potential susceptibility better management practices. Furthermore, data build resilience climate change conditions, strengthen biosecurity programs, improve farming processing efficiency, add value terms market-desirable traits. These hold promise advancing sustainability efforts within aquaculture industry. Graphical abstract

Impact of multiple-factors on health and infections in marine mussels (Perumytilus purpuratus) inhabiting contaminated sites in the Humboldt Current System

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(1)

Marine organisms are increasingly exposed to a combination of environmental stressors. However, most studies focus on single factors, limiting our understanding real-world ecological challenges. This study investigates the combined effects metal pollution, parasites, pathogens, and variables health Perumytilus purpuratus, mussel species inhabiting coast northern Chile. The upwelling system in this area, with low water turnover, creates unique environment which how multiple factors interact. Mussels were sampled from several sites affected by discharges. Analyses revealed that individuals central exhibited highest levels tissue lesions. These impacts strongly associated elevated pH, salinity, cadmium copper concentrations water. Findings emphasise synergistic chemical abiotic underscoring importance incorporating interactions into monitoring programmes. Such an approach can enhance predictions responses, inform conservation efforts, guide policies addressing global challenges like aquatic pollution. Our provides critical insights threaten ecosystems, offering framework for more comprehensive assessment.
