Development of Genetic Markers for Triploid Verification of the Pacific Oyster, [PDF]

open access: yesAsian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2013
The triploid Pacific oyster, which is produced by mating tetraploid and diploid oysters, is favored by the aquaculture industry because of its better flavor and firmer texture, particularly during the summer.

Microplastic concentrations in two Oregon bivalve species: Spatial, temporal, and species variability

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, 2020
Microplastics are an ecological stressor with implications for ecosystem and human health when present in seafood. We quantified microplastic types, concentrations, anatomical burdens, geographic distribution, and temporal differences in Pacific oysters (

Shellfish relaying on longlines in the open sea: A note

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, 2023
Since bivalves are filter‐feeding organisms that can concentrate microorganisms and contaminants from the surrounding environment, there are strict sanitary requirements to ensure food safety.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Molecular Basis Underlying Fast Growth of the Selectively Bred Pacific Oyster, Crassostrea gigas

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Fast growth is one of the most desired traits for all food animals, which affects the profitability of animal production. The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is an important aquaculture shellfish around the world with the largest annual production ...

The Probiotic Bacillus hwajinpoensis Colonizes the Digestive System of Crassostrea gigas Larvae and Protects Them from Vibrio alginolyticus Infection

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is one of the most important cultured marine species around the world. Production of Pacific oysters in China has depended primarily on hatchery produced seeds since 2016, with the successful introduction and ...

Variable microsatellites in the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas and other cupped oyster species [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, 2000
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 ...

Satellite remote sensing reveals a positive impact of living oyster reefs on microalgal biofilm development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Satellite remote sensing (RS) is routinely used for the large-scale monitoring of microphytobenthos (MPB) biomass in intertidal mudflats and has greatly improved our knowledge of MPB spatio-temporal variability and its potential drivers.

Growth and Reproduction of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas Cultured on Tidal Flat in Hebei Spirit Oil Spill Area on the West Coast of Korea Four Years After the Accident

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The Hebei Spirit oil spill (HSOS) accident in December 2007 on the west coast of Korea devastated the intertidal oyster farms along the Taean coast, resulting in the shut-down of the farming for three years.

Marine heatwaves impact mortality of triploid Pacific oysters

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2023
Studies of heatwave impacts on marine organisms are needed to understand biological tolerance to heat stress. Such studies should include integrative analyses across different levels of biological organization, which often reveal that predictions are non‐linear (e.g., gene–protein–physiology–organism).

Improved ocean-based nursery culture of blacklip pearl oyster (Pinctada margaritifera) juveniles in mesh baskets using cyanoacrylate adhesive

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2022
The blacklip pearl oyster, Pinctada margaritifera, supports well-established cultured pearl industries throughout the Pacific with various nursery culture methods used to on-grow juvenile oysters to a size suitable for pearl production. Locally-available
