Percentage (%) of metamorphosis in Pacific oyster larvae after 24 h continuous exposure to single treatments (black bars) of NO donors SIN-1 and SNP at 10− 6 M to 10− 4 M or as co-exposures (hashed bars) with epinephrine (Epi, light grey bars), MK-801 (MK, grey bars) and SMIS (dark grey bars) at 10− 4 M for 3 h exposure followed by continuous single exposure to SIN-1 or SNP at 10− 6 M to 10− 4 M, and a non-treatment control. Data were collected 24 h post exposure start. C. gigas larvae from March 2019 experiment with competent larvae 18 days post fertilisation were used for all treatments. Error bars represent standard error. Different lower-case letters represent significant differences with p < 0.05
