The word oyster was first used in the 14th century, which is derived from the Old French word ‘oistre’. Sensitivity analyses of some bivalve populations suggest that their population stability and growth rates are more sensitive to changes in larval survival and recruitment than they are to adult survivorship or fecundity (Brousseau, 2005 in EOBRT, 2007), except perhaps when disease (parasite) infection rates are high (EOBRT, 2007).
