Popis: Increasing coastal pollution leads to frequent algal blooms, but little is known on the effect of growth and development in organisms with increasing algal concentration. In recent years, the clam Cyclina sinensis has been an important marine economic shellfish that is widely cultivated. This study investigated the effects of different Chlorella concentrations (5 × 105 cell/L (Diet T1), 1.25 × 106 cell/L (Diet T2), 1.3 × 107 cell/L (Diet T3), 1.25 × 108 cell/L (Diet T4), and 1.5 × 109 cell/L (Diet T5)) on the growth, enzyme activities of digestive, immune, and respiratory metabolism, and hepatopancreatic transcriptome gene expression characteristic response of C. sinensis. Results showed that the shell length growth rate, shell height growth rate, and survival rate of C. sinensis significantly decreased as the Chlorella concentration reached 5 × 105 cell/L. The condition factor of C. sinensis in Diet T1 and the hepatopancreas index of C. sinensis in Diet T4 were significantly higher than those in the other groups (P
