Magallana

Magallana is a genus of true oysters (family Ostreidae) containing some of the most important oysters used for food. Species in this genus have been moved from Crassostrea after it was found to be paraphyletic.

Genetics

The genome of Magallana gigas has been recently sequenced [3] revealing an extensive set of genes that enable it to cope with environmental stresses.

gollark: Do NOT range extenders, for various reasons.
gollark: OpenWRT is quite pleasant to use, in my experience.
gollark: You probably want to either have something which is explicitly an access point, or run custom firmware, because some "router" products might try and be too smart and operate a NAT.
gollark: What I would do is install routers in room 1 and 3 with Ethernet links to each other, install OpenWRT, operate them as access points with the same SSID, and use 802.11r stuff to make them work together nicelyish.
gollark: If you have a wire to room 3, then just install another AP there.
