Abstract

Submersion time of collector ropes in£uences settlement and larval metamorphosis of Mytilus galloprovincialis, which might be related to the bio¢lm development. In the present study, the e¡ect of submersion time of collector ropes on the settlement of mussel seed was studied. The results of two experiments performed in an experimental long-line in the R|¤a de Ares-Betanzos have established a minimum submersion time of 41^46 days.

This study was supported by the contract-project PROINSA, Code CSIC 20061089, Galicia PGIDIT06RMA018E.
