Interspecific comparison of abj-DEB parameter values of 29 marine bivalves with those of the deep-sea wood borer Xylonora atlantica and the shallow wood borer Teredo navalis, scaled to body size (Lm: maximum structural length) (a) Pamb, maximum assimilation rate at birth \({\left\{{\dot{p}}_{Am}\right\}}_{b}\)), (b) Pamj, maximum assimilation rate after metamorphosis \({\left\{{\dot{p}}_{Am}\right\}}_{j}\); (c) Vb, energy conductance at birth \({\dot{v}}_{b}\); (d) Vj, energy conductance after metamorphosis \({\dot{v}}_{j};\) (e) Ehj, energy threshold after metamorphosis \({E}_{H}^{j}\), and (f) Ehp, energy threshold at puberty \({E}_{H}^{p}\). The black circles are the values for the 29 marine bivalves for which an abj-DEB model was applied. The red circles are the DEB parameter values of X. atlantica. The green triangles are the DEB parameter values of T. navalis.
