AbstractThis paper presents a comparison of the geographical distribution of genetic variability at mitochondrial and nuclear loci among pearl oyster populations from the tropical American Pacific coast (Pinctada mazatlanica). Surprisingly, both mitochondrial and nuclear gene variability decreased regularly from north to south of the studied area ...

Abstract The results of a series of pilot-scale runs with P. mazatlanica larvae from 2004 through 2006 are reported. Preliminary runs in 2004 and 2005 used broodstock collected in summer, when massive spawning of wild populations naturally occurs. However, results of larval development were very poor and failed to produce spat in both years.

This study reports the survival, hemocyte count and physiological response indicators of pearl oysters Pteria sterna and Pinctada mazatlanica seeded with allografts and xenografts for pearl culture. Two treatments of oysters receiving an allograft (both donor and host were Pt. sterna) or a xenograft (donor was Pt. sterna and host was P.

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 ...

Marine Biology, 2007
A previous study predicted the evolution of monogamy in symbiotic crustaceans inhabiting scarce, relatively small hosts in tropical environments where predation risk away from hosts is high. This prediction was tested in the shrimp Pontonia margarita, which inhabits the pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica.

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).

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.

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.

Aquaculture Research, 1997 Pearl oysters Pinctada mazatlanica (Hanley 1856) and Pteria sterna (Gould 1851) were studied for an annual cycle of in situ growth from May 1992 to April 1993. Organisms generated from extensive culture were kept under repopulation conditions at Caleta El Merito. Growth measurements of shell height and length were taken monthly. Data were used to build

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
