Grown-out of seeds of the taquilla clam Mulinia edulis (King & Broderip, 1832) in the subtidal zone in northern Chile and in the intertidal zone in southern Chile
Seeds of the clam Mulinia edulis produced in a hatchery were grown in bottom cages in the subtidal zone of Tongoy Bay (northern Chile) and in the intertidal zone of Chullec (Chiloé Island, southern Chile), to compare the growth and survival of small and large seeds of the same production in differen...
