An LSD test indicated that the mean rate of byssogenesis was signifi- cantly greater (P < ) for mussels exposed to high Po2 (, , and torr) than for those exposed to low Po2 ( and torr), over the first 7 days of exposure (Fig. Ib). The null hypothesis that oxygen concentration had no effect on the rate of byssal thread production was therefore rejected. As a result of differing production rates, specimens held at , , and torr had significantly more new byssal threads in their byssal mass after 7 days exposure than those held at or torr (Fig. Ib). Mean byssal thread number is reported after the first 7 days only, because high mortality in samples 100. 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 Days Figure 3.
