Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Bivalves are excellent nutrients for human beings, sharing a large part of the world’s aquaculture industry. This Special Issue primarily focuses on, but is not limited to, the bivalves, as well as gastropods and cephalopods, etc. We aim to form a Special Issue concentrated in bivalve feeding, bait, and nutrition. For example, the bivalve feeding mechanism, bivalve bait such as microalgae and microparticle feed, bivalve nutrition such lipid, protein, and carbohydrate, and their response to external factors such as salinity, temperature, and processing. We invite experts in relevant fields to submit compelling research or review articles to form a Special Issue that will contribute to the bivalve industry.
