FONDEF ID16i10018
Study financed by FONDEF IDeA, CONICYT (2017-2019). This research aimed to find the best genetic strategy to improve the growth rate of the Chilean flat oyster. For this, hybridization and selection experiments were performed. On the other hand, the dynamics of intoxication and detoxication of PST (FAN) were studied. The results showed that oyster populations studied showed low detoxification capacity. Oysters from the estuary showed higher survival rates than those from the bay.

FIPA 2014-65 (2017-2018)
Study financed by the fishery and aquaculture research fund, Chile (FIPA). The objective was to study the effect of cypermethrin, deltamethrin, azamethiphos and hydrogen peroxide on the larvae and adults of the species Mytilus chilensis (Chilean mussels) and Metacarcinus edwardsii (Jaiba marmola).
