Immune characterization and expression analysis of a C-type lectin from Pinctada fucata martensii

Aquaculture Reports, 2023
C-type lectins are involved in nonself-recognition and pathogen clearance, and play an important role in innate immunity. Pinctada fucata martensii, which is an important shellfish in the pearl industry, is being attacked by pathogenic microorganisms ...

Immune characterization and expression analysis of a goose-type lysozyme gene from Pinctada fucata martensii

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
In the present study, a g-type lysozyme was successfully screened and cloned from Pinctada fucata martensii (designated as PmlysG). The cDNA has a length of 973 bp with an open reading frame (ORF) of 769 bp, encoding a protein of 255 amino acids.

Effect of protein sources in formulated diets on the growth, immune response, and intestinal microflora of pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii

Aquaculture Reports, 2020
Diets affect the intestinal microflora, which in turn affects the growth performance and immune response on host. To study the effect of protein sources in formulated diets on the growth, immune response, and intestinal microflora of pearl oyster ...

Identifying genes associated with genetic control of color polymorphism in the pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera var. cumingii (Linnaeus 1758) using a comparative whole genome pool‐sequencing approach

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 408-427, February 2023., 2023
Abstract For hundreds of years, the color diversity of Mollusca shells has been a topic of interest for humanity. However, the genetic control underlying color expression is still poorly understood in mollusks. The pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera is increasingly becoming a biological model to study this process due to its ability to produce a large

Genome-Wide 6mA Map Unveils Epigenetic Adaptation in Deep-Sea Limpet. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our study provides the first genome‐wide 6mA profile for any deep‐sea animal, uncovers its sophisticated, context‐dependent role in gene regulation, and functionally links this epigenetic mark to the adaptive pathways essential for deep‐sea survival.

Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals the Response to Acute Thermal Stress in the Pacific Abalone, Haliotis discus hannai

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The Pacific abalone is an economically important cold‐water shellfish. With its widespread culture, high temperature has become a key abiotic factor for the high mortality of Pacific abalone in summer, particularly in the south of China. To understand the molecular regulatory mechanisms of thermal stress response in Pacific abalone for further ...

Exploring HSP90 as a Biomarker for Marine Heatwaves in Pinctada maxima

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Many species, particularly marine organisms, are becoming more vulnerable to marine heatwaves due to climate change. Marine species anticipate perishing during marine heatwaves, but there is a growing interest in learning why some can resist.

Chromosomal assembly of the flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) genome as a new genetic resource for aquaculture

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 15, Issue 11, Page 1730-1748, November 2022., 2022
Abstract The European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) is a native bivalve of the European coasts. Harvest of this species has declined during the last decades because of the appearance of two parasites that have led to the collapse of the stocks and the loss of the natural oyster beds. O.

Insights from tyrosinase into the impacts of modified morphology of calcium carbonate on the nacre formation of pearl oysters

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Tyrosinase is a type-3 copper protein with six conserved histidine residues within the copper-binding sites. It participates in mollusk nacre formation.

Thermal Responses in Japanese Pearl Oysters, Pinctada fucata martensii

International Journal of Zoological Investigations, 2022
In order to examine the thermal responses in pearl oysters, both the mRNA expression levels of heatshock protein (Hsp) in their tissues and changes in the mineral levels of their hemolymph were analyzed using heattreated and heat-untreated pearl oysters.
