Effect of maternal exposure to tributyltin on reproduction of the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata martensii)

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2004
Abstract We examined the effect of tributyltin (TBT) on reproduction of the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata martensii). In a maternal exposure test, five female pearl oysters were exposed to TBT at measured concentrations of 0 (control), 0.092, or 0.191 μg/L at 25°C for one week, and the embryo developmental success (the ratio of normal D ...

Adaptive response of pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii to low water temperature stress

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2018
The pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii is a warm-water shellfish that is sensitive to cold environments. To investigate its potential adaptation to low-temperature stress, the selected line (SL) and based population (BP) were sampled to undergo transcriptome sequence. Results of transcriptome analysis showed 572 significant differentially expressed

The physiological responses to titanium dioxide nanoparticles exposure in pearl oysters (Pinctada fucata martensii)

Marine Environmental Research
To evaluate the physiological responses to titanium dioxide nanoparticles exposure in pearl oysters (Pinctada fucata martensii), pearl oysters were exposed for 14 days to different levels (0.05, 0.5, and 5 mg/L) of nano-TiO2 suspensions, while a control group did not undergo any nano-TiO2 treatment.

Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses reveal sex-related differences in the gonads of Pinctada fucata martensii

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part D: Genomics and Proteomics
Pinctada fucata martensii is an economically important bivalve mollusk, as this species makes a major contribution to seawater pearl production. Pearl production efficiency varies between the sexes of P. f. martensii, but many aspects of the molecular mechanisms underlying sex determination and sex differentiation in P. f.

Genetic selection for shell traits in the Japanese pearl oyster, Pinctada fucata martensii

Aquaculture, 1986
Abstract Selection experiments are currently being conducted on 3-year-old Japanese pearl oysters, Pinctada fucata martensii for shell width and shell convexity, defined as shell width/(shell height + hinge line length + shell width). The third generation was produced in 1981, and offspring were evaluated in 1983 and 1984.

Transcriptome of Long Non-coding RNAs and microRNAs in Pinctada fucata martensii

This study utilized three samples each from the central region (MC), edge region (ME), and pearl sac (PS) of the mantle of 1.5-year-old Pinctada fucata martensii from Dajing Village, Xilian Town, Xuwen County, Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province. Total amounts and integrity of RNA were assessed using the RNA Nano 6000 Assay Kit of the Bioanalyzer 2100 ...
