Mantle regeneration in the pearl oysters Pinctada fucata and Pinctada margaritifera
Aquaculture, 2005 Abstract Mantle tissue in pearl oysters (Pteriidae) is responsible for secreting the mother-of-pearl or nacre lining the shell. When grafted into another oyster, excised mantle tissue, commonly called ‘saibo’, is responsible for cultured pearl production. This study was undertaken to assess the process of mantle regeneration in the Akoya pearl oyster
