Abstract

These data include measurements of juvenile oyster shell strength from a dose response experiment conducted at Dauphin Island Sea Lab, Dauphin Island, AL in June - August of 2021. Study description: Homarine and trigonelline are two blue crab urine metabolites that cause juvenile oysters to strengthen their shells are a defensive response. We evaluated the dose dependency of this response with a dose-response experiment where homarine and trigonelline concentrations (of each individual chemi...
