The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is one of the dominant sessile inhabitants estuarine intertidal zone, which a physically harsh environment due to presence number stressors. Oysters have adapted highly dynamic and stressful environments, but molecular mechanisms underlying such stress adaptation are largely unknown. In present study, we examined proteomic responses in gills C. exposed three stressors (high temperature, low salinity, aerial exposure) they often encounter field. We...
Nautilus is the sole surviving externally shelled cephalopod from Palaeozoic. It unique within genealogy and critical to understanding evolutionary novelties of cephalopods. Here, we present a complete pompilius genome as fundamental genomic reference on innovations, such pinhole eye biomineralization. shows compact, minimalist with few encoding genes slow rates in both non-coding coding regions among known Importantly, multiple innovations including gene losses, independent contraction...
Abstract Tridacna crocea is an ecologically important marine bivalve inhabiting tropical coral reef waters. High quality and available genomic resources will help us understand the population structure genetic diversity of giant clams. This study reports a high-quality chromosome-scale T. genome sequence 1.30 Gb, with scaffold N50 contig 56.38 Mb 1.29 Mb, respectively, which was assembled by combining PacBio long reads Hi-C sequencing data. Repetitive sequences cover 71.60% total length,...
Background The reproductive mechanisms of mollusk species have been interesting targets in biological research because the diverse strategies observed this phylum. These also studied for development fishery technologies molluscan aquaculture. Although molecular underlying process well animal models, relevant information from mollusks remains limited, particularly great commercial interest. Crassostrea hongkongensis is dominant oyster that distributed along coast South China Sea and little...
This study is the first systematic comparison of biochemical composition and nutritional quality between diploid triploid Hong Kong oysters, Crassostrea hongkongensis. Results showed that in reproductive season, glycogen content five tissues (gill, mantle, adductor muscle, labial palps gonad) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) triploids than diploids, with odds ratios (ORs) 96.26%, 60.17%, 72.59%, 53.56% 128.52%, respectively. In non-reproductive phase significant differences oysters...
Interspecific hybridization is a useful tool in genetic improvement of agriculture and aquaculture species. The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) the Hong Kong hongkongensis) are both important species China. To determine whether these 2 can hybridize produce viable offspring, we conducted 2×2 factorial crosses between them. Asymmetry fertilization was observed when C. hongkongensis eggs were fertilized readily by gigas sperm, but reciprocal cross resulted no fertilization. Embryos from...
Crassostrea hongkongensis, a commercially valuable aquaculture species dwelling in estuaries along the coast of South China Sea, is remarkable for its eurysalinity traits that enable successful colonization diverse osmotic niches ranging from near freshwater to seawater. In order elucidate how this oyster copes with coastal waters immense salinity differences, we performed situ transcriptomic analysis (RNA-seq) characterize global expression patterns oysters distributed across naturally...
