• Impacts of bottom and suspended cultures of mussels Mytilus spp. on the surrounding sedimentary environment and macrobenthic biodiversity (2009, background): “Mussel aquaculture is done by means of bottom cultures (by seeding intertidal or subtidal beds), but also by suspended cultures (using rafts or longlines), and cultures on bouchots ( Smaal 2002 ).”
• The decline of mussel aquaculture in the European Union: causes, economic impacts and opportunities (2020, background): “Reviews in Aquaculture published by John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd96 already be taken by aquaculture farms or other activities (Smaal 2002).”
• Health risks of heavy metals in the mediterranean mussels as seafood (2012, background): “In Europe, the production of cultivated mussels is almost five times higher than wild collected mussels.”
• Ecological value of coastal habitats for commercially and ecologically important species (2014, background): “Mussels are the main shellfish species produced in Europe (Smaal, 2002).”
• Depletion of plankton in a raft culture of Mytilus galloprovincialis in Ría de Vigo, NW Spain. I. Phytoplankton (2008, background): “However, for practical reasons, mussel cultivation often takes place in protected areas with low physical forcing, and depletion may therefore occur in such areas, causing a lower production or individual growth rate of mussels (Strohmeier et al. 2005).”
• Searching for sustainability in aquaculture: An investigation into the economic prospects for an integrated salmon–mussel production system (2006, background): “One study has shown that the average market price for mussels in Europe as a whole tended to fall throughout the 1990s [23], but this trend may well be halted or reversed given the expectation by some analysts that demand for mussels will increase.”
