Journal ArticleDOI
Adult exposure influences offspring response to ocean acidification in oysters
Laura M. Parker,Pauline M. Ross,Wayne A. O'Connor,Larissa Borysko,David A. Raftos,Hans-Otto Pörtner +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that sensitive marine organisms may have the capacity to acclimate or adapt to elevated Pco2 over the next century and a change in energy turnover indicated by SMR may be a key process involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shifting paradigms in restoration of the world's coral reefs

Raftos,Britta Schaffelke,Kristen Stewart,Gergely Torda,Gergely Torda,David Wachenfeld,Andrew Weeks,Hollie M. Putnam +26 more
TL;DR: The necessity for consideration of alternative (e.g., hybrid) ecosystem states is highlighted, traits of resilient corals and coral reef ecosystems are discussed, and a decision tree for incorporating assisted evolution into restoration initiatives to enhance climate resilience of coral reefs is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immune responses to infectious diseases in bivalves.
Bassem Allam,David A. Raftos +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that one of the remaining challenges is to use new "omics" technologies to understand how this diverse array of factors is integrated and controlled during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of Positive Carryover Effects in the Oyster, Saccostrea glomerata, following Transgenerational Exposure to Ocean Acidification.
TL;DR: It was found that the capacity of adults to regulate extracellular pH at elevatedCO2 was improved if they had a prior history of transgenerational exposure to elevated CO2, and subsequent transgenerations led to an increase in the resilience of their larval and juvenile offspring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sydney rock oyster (Saccostrea glomerata) hemocytes: morphology and function.
TL;DR: Sydney rock oysters have a broad variety of functionally specialized hemocytes, many of which are involved in host defense, according to flow cytometry.
