Simulated marine heatwaves promote greater post-harvest Vibrio parahaemolyticus abundances in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) but not Sydney rock oysters (Saccostrea glomerata)

Context Climate change is increasing the frequency of marine heatwaves (MHW), raising concerns about foodborne illness linked to marine pathogens such as Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Aims To determine whether simulated MHW conditions promote accumulation of V. parahaemolyticus in oys...
