Abstract
Populations of the Manila clam, Tapes philippinarum (Adams & Reeve, 1850), were maintained at temperatures of 12, 15, 18, and 21°C for a period of 19 weeks. Regular determinations were made of ammonia excretion rate following which animals were sacrificed for estimation of dry meat weight, dry shell weight, biochemical composition, and gonadal development. T. philippinarum increased from an initial dry meat weight of 291.5 mg to final values of...
