Unusual conservation of mitochondrial gene order in Crassostrea oysters: evidence for recent speciation in Asia [PDF]
Background Oysters are morphologically plastic and hence difficult subjects for taxonomic and evolutionary studies. It is long been suspected, based on the extraordinary species diversity observed, that Asia Pacific is the epicenter of oyster

Genomics applied to livestock and aquaculture breeding
Abstract The increasing global demand for food, due to the continuous growth of human population, requires improvements in the efficiency and sustainability of animal production systems. In addition, several challenges facing farming of aquatic and terrestrial organisms need to be overcome to ensure food security in the upcoming decades, e.g ...

Identification two novel nacrein-like proteins involved in the shell formation of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas [PDF]
Nacrein-like proteins have carbonic anhydrase (CA)-like domains, but their coding regions are flanked by inserted repeat sequence, such as Gly-X-Asn.
