Gonad development and differentiation is an essential function for all sexually reproducing species, many aspects of these developmental processes are highly conserved among the metazoa. However, mechanisms underlying gonad gametogenesis remain unclear in Tridacna squamosa, a large-size bivalve great ecological value. They protandrous simultaneous hermaphrodites, with male maturing first, eventually followed by female gonads. In this study, nine libraries representing resting, hermaphrodite...
Chitinase is a key enzyme in many organisms that functions as defense against chitin-coated pathogens or digestive to hydrolyze dietary chitin. Chitin also essential for the formation of organic frameworks, involves various biological processes, including shell formation. However, function chitinase Crassostrea hongkongensis has not yet been determined. In this study, we obtained full Ch-chit sequence from C. hongkongensis. The length cDNA encoded predicted 470-amino acid protein, contained...
Beclin-1 plays a central role in autophagy, which is well documented mammals. However, the identity and function of remain largely unclear mollusks. In this study, gene (ChBeclin-1) was identified characterized from Crassostrea hongkongensis. The full length ChBeclin-1 cDNA encoded predicted 442-amino acid protein with deduced molecular weight 51.11 kDa theoretical isoelectric point 4.71. putative amino sequence contained typical Bcl-2 homology domain 3 (BH3), coiled-coil (CCD), an Atg6...
The boring giant clam (Tridacna crocea) is the smallest species of Tridacna genus, but they strongly express mantle color polymorphism. These morphs represent potential genetic resources for aquaculture to supply aquarium market, and evaluation their production characteristics important. Wild yellow-green clams were consistently larger than blue in both Huangyan Island Zhaoshu populations Southern China Sea. To determine relationship between phenotypic traits, blue, control strains (various...
Unlike most bivalves, giant clams (tridacnids) harbor symbiotic microalgae (zooxanthellae) in their other fleshy bodies. The effects of mixed populations zooxanthellae on larval metamorphosis has been reported several papers, but there have very few studies the single zooxanthella species establishment symbiosis clams. In this study, we obtained five pure (clades A3, B1, C1, D1, E1) from antler coral by molecular identification, and analyzed progeny performance two clams, Tridacna squamosa...
Abstract Panel data is composed of three dimensions: object, index and time, it has no mature clustering algorithm because its complexity dynamic structure. Two methods for multi panel are proposed in this paper. These two respectively weighted from the perspective time perspective, on basis, two-step method used clustering. Then these applied to cluster analysis regional economy. The empirical results show that can effectively complete research objects, have their own emphasis feature...
According to the RGB law display, polymorphism of giant clam mantle color pattern is through four iridocytes. The boring ( Tridacna crocea ) exhibits diverse colors, including blue, green, purple, gold, and orange. In order evaluate genetic laws driving these patterns, a complete diallel cross between two strains [blue strain (only blue iridocyte) yellow-green (yellow green iridocytes)] was performed. Using single-to-single mating system, intra-strain crosses (BB YY) reciprocal inter-strain...
Sexually propagated scleractinian corals are in high demand for coral reef restoration. However, threatened reef-building corals, many of the molecular mechanisms related to their reproduction remain largely unknown, which forms a major bottleneck large-scale cultivation sexually reproducing corals. In this study, we analyzed proteomic signatures red eggs and spermatozoa from ecologically significant Galaxea fascicularis, using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) method....
Hydrolase genes play an important role in the immune defense system mollusks. We found a new hydrolase gene Crassostrea hongkongensis. To explore its function, we cloned and characterized (Chhd) from C. The full-length cDNA of Chhd is 936 bp, which composed 531 bp open reading frame (ORF), 92 5′ -untranslated region (UTR) 313 3′ UTR, ORF encodes polypeptide 176 amino acids contains hydrolase_2 domain. qRT-PCR results showed that was ubiquitously expressed tissues hongkongensis, expression...
Giant clams are marine bivalves that inhabit Indo-Pacific coral reefs. The boring giant clam, Tridacna crocea , exhibits bright and conspicuous mantle coloration based on the specialized cells (iridocytes) generate structural colors. In order to illustrate coloring mechanism of individual iridocytes, reflection spectra curve iridocytes was obtained by a micro-hyperspectral imager. TEM images were show inner nanostructures iridocytes. FDTD simulation conducted analyze relationship between...
P-element-induced wimpy testis ( Piwi ) is a key gene involved in germ cell development diverse range of organisms. However, giant clams, the function remains unclear. In present study, we isolated full-length cDNA ortholog Tc-Piwi1 and analyzed its expression patterns gonads adult juvenile Tridacna crocea . The results qPCR showed that transcript was mainly expressed gonad tissue. addition, relative level increased with proliferation male female cells during stage, suggesting might be...
