Effect of temperature on oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion in the Calafia mother-of-pearl oyster, Pinctada mazatlanica (Hanley, 1856)

Aquaculture, 2004
Abstract The effect of temperature on oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion in the pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica was studied as a strategy to define the optimum thermal range for experiments on reproductive conditioning of broodstock of this species.

Population structure and genetic variability of pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica along Pacific coasts from Mexico to Panama

Conservation Genetics, 2000
Populations of the Calafia pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica ofthe American Pacific coasts have been considered endangeredbecause of overfishing and/or alteration to coastal areas. Weassessed genetic variability and the pattern of populationstructure among 9 samples collected from Mexico to Panama, usingmtDNA RFLP analysis of two genes: 12S rRNA and ...

Gonadic conditioning of the calafia mother-of-pearl oyster, Pinctada mazatlanica (Hanley, 1856), under two temperature regimes

Aquaculture, 2001
Abstract Gonadic conditioning of pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica was studied under two water temperature regimes using cultured specimens. Before starting conditioning, specimens were induced to spawn with thermal shock. Two different regimes were evaluated, controlled temperatures (CT) and gradually increasing temperatures (IT).

Differential gonadal development of grafted and ungrafted specimens of the Calafia mother-of-pearl oyster,Pinctada mazatlanica(Bivalvia: Pteriidae)

Invertebrate Reproduction & Development, 2001
Summary The present work deals with the existence of differential gonadal development between grafted and ungrafted specimens of the pearl oyster, Pinctada mazatlanica. Oysters were collected as spat and extensively cultured until they were suitable for pearl formation.

Evaluation of Quality Indices of the Gonad and Somatic Tissues Involved in Reproduction of the Pearl OysterPinctada mazatlanicawith Histochemistry and Digital Image Analysis

Journal of Shellfish Research, 2009
ABSTRACT We evaluated indicators of quality for female gonads (ovary and oocytes), male gonads (testis and seminal tubules), and selected somatic tissues (fiber packages in the adductor muscle and adenomeres in the digestive gland) that participate in reproduction of the pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica.

Spat collection studies on pearl oysters Pinctada mazatlanica and Pteria sterna (Bivalvia, Pteriidae) in Bahia de La Paz, South Baja California, Mexico

Hydrobiologia, 1994
The present work deals with the temporal and bathymetrical variations of the epifaunal community associated with two species of pearl oysters (Pinctada mazatlanica and Pteria sterna) during a seed collecting season from June to November 1989. A total of 63 items (species, genera and/or families) were recorded; their variations in presence and abundance

Current Wild Population Status of Protected Mother‐Of‐Pearl Oyster Pinctada mazatlanica in Mexican Pacific Reefs

Marine Ecology
ABSTRACTThe mother‐of‐pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica (Hanley, 1856) obtained full protection from the Mexican government after the fishery collapse in 1939. P. mazatlanica was listed in 1994 as a threatened species in the “Special Protection” category. However, no quantitative assessment of the state of the population has been done so far. Our study
