Variable microsatellites in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas and other cupped oyster species.
Source/description : Genomic DNA was extracted from a whole Pacific oyster (C. gigas) after grinding in liquid nitrogen. Purified DNA was then digested by a mix of 3 restriction enzymes (AluI, RsaI, HaeIII). DNA fragments ranging from 250 to 500 bp were size-selected by agarose gel electrophoresis and ligated into the dephosphorylated blunt-ended SmaI-linearised pBKS2 plasmid (Stratagene Clonin...
متن کاملCrassostrea gigas
Scientific names: Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg 1793), Ostreidae, Bivalvia Synonyms: Gryphaea angulata Lamarck 1819; Ostrea gigas Thunberg 1793; Ostrea laperousii Schrenk 1861; Ostrea talienwhanensis Crosse 1862. Note: The Portuguese oyster Crassostrea angulata is a name often used for this species. According to genetic studies it was shown that Crassostrea angulata is likely a strain of Crassost...
متن کاملAn amylase gene polymorphism is associated with growth differences in the Pacific cupped oyster Crassostrea gigas.
This study investigated the non-neutrality of genetic polymorphism in two alpha-amylase genes (AMYA and AMYB) in the oyster Crassostrea gigas. Bi-parental oyster families, bred to be polymorphic for markers in these genes, were monitored for growth and survival for 1 year under standard culture conditions in two French production sites. Within-family genotype frequencies indicated that the two ...
متن کاملIs fertility of hybrids enough to conclude that the two oysters Crassostrea gigas and Crassostrea angulata are the same species?
The distinction of the two cupped oysters Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg, 1793) and Crassostrea angulata (Lamark, 1819) into two species was chiefly due to their differing geographical distributions, C. gigas being present in Asia and C. angulata in Europe. Today it is commonly accepted that C. angulata and C. gigas are a single species according to morphological, genetic and F1 hybridization data...
متن کاملStudy of atrazine effects on Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, haemocytes.
Shellfish farming is an important economic activity around the world. This activity often takes place in areas subjected to various recurring pollutions. The recrudescent use of herbicides in agriculture including atrazine implies pollutant transfer towards aquatic environment in estuarine areas. Harmful effects of such substances on animals in marine environment, particularly on cultured bival...
