🐚 Our new study shows thermal priming boosts Manila clam survival during lethal marine heatwaves — with effects lasting over a month! 📘 "Thermal priming mitigates the effects of lethal marine heatwaves on the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum)" 📜 doi.org/10.1016/j.is... @unipd.bsky.social

🔥🦠 Can science help clams survive the heat and disease? 🧬We’re using selective breeding to give Manila clams a better chance against heatwaves and the Perkinsus olseni parasite. See how this approach could strengthen #shellfish farming in a warming world! 🦪 ℹ️ ignition-project.eu #Aquaculture

Thrilled to see Benchmark Genetics dual-species SNP array live! 🐚🧬 Thanks to Drs. Penaloza Navarro, Houston, Woolley & #ShellFishBoost for the great collaboration. We're proud to support more accessible shellfish genomics! 🔗 tiny.cc/h2mp001
