Pedigreed lines of oysters with different genetic histories, produced by the Oregon State University Molluscan Broodstock Program (MBP), displayed markedly differential survival, yields, and growth rates during episodes of summer mortality at project study locations in California and Washington. There is a strong and consistent genetic response of families to environmental stress that is independent of when the families were produced and planted.
