Application of calcein for estimating growth of the yellow clam Mesodesma mactroides Reeve, 1854

Growth rates of Mesodesma mactroides were estimated comparing two different methods at the intertidal of the exposed sandy beach Santa Teresita, Argentina. Results of a short tagging-recapture experiment using the in situ fluorescent marking (MFI) method and subsequent sizeincrement analysis were co...
