Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the groundbreaking work of George Lefevre and Winterton Curtis in the early 1900s. Their research into the reproductive biology of freshwater mussels led to the establishment of practical methods for artificially propagating these economically and ecologically important organisms. The authors provide a detailed account of their innovative techniques, including the use of wire cages and the infection of fish with glochidia, the parasitic larvae of mussels. The book also delves into the broader context of mussel biology, including their breeding seasons, growth rates, and the challenges they face in the present day. This comprehensive exploration of freshwater mussel reproduction and conservation offers valuable insights for researchers, conservationists, and anyone interested in the health and sustainability of aquatic ecosystems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334611780_0
