Percentage (%) of metamorphosis in Pacific oyster larvae after 24 h continuous exposure to single treatments (black bars) of NO pathways inhibitors SMIS, AGH, 7-NI, L-NAME, L-NNA and ODQ, at different concentrations, as well as known inducers epinephrine (EPI; light grey bars) and MK-801 (MK; grey bars) at 10− 4 M for 3 h, a DMSO (black-stripe bars) and a no treatment control (open bars). Data were collected 24 h post exposure start. C. gigas larvae from December 2018 experiment with competent larvae 18 dpf were used for all treatments except for ODQ, for which 19 dpf larvae were used. Error bars represent standard error. Different lower-case letters represent significant differences with p < 0.05
