The Eastern oyster: Crassostrea virginica
Open accessAbstract
This document is the most comprehensive synthesis on the biology of the eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica in more than 30 years. The book's 21 chapters provide up-to- date treatment of such topics as anatomy, the shell, larval biology, feeding, reproduction, genetics, predation, diseases, and defense mechanisms, while covering issues of oyster aquaculture and management as well. More than 400 photographs, drawings and diagrams complement the text. While aimed at the specialist, this book should be of great value to scientists, managers and commercial aquaculturists. *** The following chapters are included in this book: 1. A catalogue of selected species of living oysters (Ostreacea) of the world. Melbourne R. Carriker and Patrick M. Gaffney pp. 1-18. 2. General anatomy. Albert F. Eble and Robert Scro pp. 19- 74. 3.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
