Reproduction of Cortez oyster, Crassostrea corteziensis (Hertlein, 1951) in a growing area in the central Mexican Pacific coast

The state of Nayarit is the main oyster producer in the Mexican Pacific, this derived from artisanal crops of Crassostrea corteziensis and collecting of wild seeds. Despite its importance, there are no studies on the reproduction of this species in Boca de Camichin, Nayarit, Mexico, which is the are...
