%X Mussels face warming, hypoxia, and salinity shifts. In Mytilus edulis, we tested whether sperm ATP comes mainly from oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and how parental hypoxia/anoxia and seawater temperature/salinity affect sperm and fertilization. OXPHOS was the main ATP source for motility. Parental anoxia lowered mitochondrial ATP capacity and coupling; hypoxia/anoxia increased mitochondrial ROS. Heat reduced respiratory efficiency and raised ROS; salinity effects were small. Sperm mitochondria were resilient; reproduction likely limited by gametes/embryos, not sperm metabolism.<eng>
