This paper describes relative age and growth pattern of the blood cockle, Tegillarca granosa (Linnaeus) in Yeoja Bay, southern coast of Korea. The young shell of blood cockle that spawned from July to August reached 5.60 mm $({\pm}\;1.07)$ in shell height in October. Slow growing season was estimated to be from October to the next May with water temperature under $23^{\circ}C$. With warm water temperature in July to September, the growth was fast. The young shells reached 29 percentage of asymptotic shell height 11-15 months after spawning. Growth was estimated by von Bertalanffy growth function as follows. $I_t(sh_t)=46.1317\;(1-e^{-0.4997(t-0.5828)})$.

To investigate the effects of the dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) of Tetillarca granosa (Linnaeus), We measured $LC_{50}$, survival, oxygen consumption rate, filtration rates and blood composition under $10{\cdot}{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$ and $25{\cdot}0.5^{\circ}C$ as a function of DO. The 16 days-$LC_{50}$ of DO for T. granosa was 1.31 mg DO/L in large individual and 0.95 mg DO/L in small individual. At 25$^{\circ}C$, the $LC_{50}$ of DO in large and small individual was 1.13 and 1.M mg DO/L, respectively. With decreasing DO, oxygen consumption rate, and filtration rates of T. granosa decreased. Blood composition of T. granosa was analysed hemoglobin, glucose, total protein, total cholesterol, GOT and GPT, Hg was increased with decreasing DO, but glucose was decreased below 1.2 mg DO/L. Total protein, total cholesterol, GOT and GPT were investigated irregular and decreasing aspect.

연안 및 조간대에 서식하고 있는 정착성이거나 이동이 적은 패류들은 조석주기와 분포 등에 의해 일정한 주기로 공기 노출에 직면하고 있으므로 이러한 생물들은 먹이를 섭취하는 시간에 제한을 받으며, 온도의 변화 및 건조에 스트레스를 받고 있다. 공기노출시 패류의 생리적 반응은 종에 따라 다르게 나타나며, 전형적으로 패각을 닫는 형태와 패각을 여는 형태로 나누어지며, 일반적으로 공기에 노출된 후 다시 물에 잠김에 따라 빠르게 대사를 회복시킨다. (중략)

산소가 고갈된 환경속에서는 패각의 폐쇄가 일어나게 되며, 종에 따라 생리적 반응은 차이가 있을지라도, 대체로 저산소에 대한 생리적 보상 기작으로서 수류의 펌프작용과 환기 및 혈중내에서의 산소 수송능력이 증가된다. 저산소상태의 환경속에서는 혐기성 대사가 증가되는 대신, 호기성 대사가 억제되므로서 보유하고 있는 에너지의 사용을 최소화하여 제한된 시간동안 저산소 및 무산소 상태에서도 생존할 수 있다. (중략)

This study was designed to assess the quality and quantity of food resources such as the chlorophyll a concentration (Chl-a), the particulate organic carbon (POC) and the particulate organic nitrogen (PON), on blood cocke (Tegillarca granosa Linnaeus) farms from May to November 2017 in the northwestern area of Yeoja Bay, Korea. The values of Chl-a, POC and PON were $1.69-7.68{\mu}g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ (average: $3.48{\mu}g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ in the surface), 0.88-2.58 mM (average: 1.97 mM) and 0.17-0.90 mM (average: 0.54 mM), respectively, and these values were higher in the spring and summer and lower in the autumn. Furthermore, Chl-a and POC had higher values on the bottom layer than those vales on the surface, while PON had higher values on the surface than those values on the bottom. The POC/PON ratio and POC/Chl-a ratio were 1.56-7.88 (average: 3.71 on the surface of the water) and 216-967 (average: 700 on the bottom of the water), respectively, with most of the carbon sources being sediment-accumulated particle organic matter, and the contribution by phytoplankton was assessed as being low. These results show that the food source of the blood cockle farms in the northwest area of Yeoja Bay seems to be abundant in quantity, but this is considered to be very poor in quality.
