Abstract—A valuable mariculture object, the Japanese scallop Mizuhopecten (=Patinopevten) yessoensis
(Jay), after six hours long transportation by air and sowing on the bottom is fouled greater by epi- and endolyth-
ical organisms than the members of the native population. It is likely that the fouling negatively affects the spec-
imens, those that were the largest before the sowing at the bottom were not found among those that reached
puberty. The results of the effects of the endolythic polychaete Polydora brevipalpa and the barnacle Hesperib-
alanus hesperius on the growth rate of the Japanese scallop cultivated on the bottom of Peter the Great Bay (Sea
of Japan) are provided in this paper.
