Abstract

Mariculture of bivalves is of great importance in meeting the increasing protein demands of the human population. Bivalve groups such as oyster, mussel and clam are the most important cultivable organisms all over the world. Mussels are sedentary bivalves attaching to rocky substrata by byssus threads and they are filter feeders. Among them, Perna viridis (Green Mussel) and Perna perna (Brown mussel) form the most dominant cultivable mussel species.
