Abstract

Bivalve farming, especially that o f mussels and edible oysters, is becoming popular among maricullure entrepreneurs in Kerala as the shallow waters near (he coast or estuaries provide good environmental conditions for bivalve growth. Unfortunately these coastal waters are also the areas often subjected to pollution from different sources. Bivalves being filter feeders can accumulate human pathogenic bacteria and viruses when grown in polluted waters.
