Transcriptomic analysis of Crassostrea sikamea × Crassostrea angulata hybrids in response to low salinity stress
Hybrid oysters often show heterosis in growth rate, weight, survival and adaptability to extremes of salinity. Oysters have also been used as model organisms to study the evolution of host-defense system. To gain comprehensive knowledge about various physiological processes in hybrid oysters under low salinity stress, we performed transcriptomic analysis of gill tissue of Crassostrea sikamea ♀ ...
متن کاملIs fertility of hybrids enough to conclude that the two oysters Crassostrea gigas and Crassostrea angulata are the same species?
The distinction of the two cupped oysters Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg, 1793) and Crassostrea angulata (Lamark, 1819) into two species was chiefly due to their differing geographical distributions, C. gigas being present in Asia and C. angulata in Europe. Today it is commonly accepted that C. angulata and C. gigas are a single species according to morphological, genetic and F1 hybridization data...
متن کاملTranscriptomic Responses to Salinity Stress in the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas
BACKGROUND Low salinity is one of the main factors limiting the distribution and survival of marine species. As a euryhaline species, the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is considered to be tolerant to relative low salinity. The genes that regulate C. gigas responses to osmotic stress were monitored using the next-generation sequencing of whole transcriptome with samples taken from gills. By R...
متن کاملTranscriptomic response of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas to hypoxia.
Marine intertidal organisms commonly face hypoxic stress during low tide emersion; moreover, eutrophic conditions and sediment nearness could lead to hypoxic phenomena; it is indeed important to understand the molecular processes involved in the response to hypoxia. In this study the molecular response of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas to prolonged hypoxia (2mg O(2) L(-1) for 20d) was inv...
متن کاملOccurrence and Distribution of Crassostrea sikamea (Amemiya 1928) in China
Cupped oysters are common and abundant along the coast of China, but their classification has been uncertain. In previous studies, we classified 2 of the cupped oysters into 2 subspecies:Crassostrea gigas gigas from the northern coast of China and Crassostrea gigas angulata from the southern coast of China. There is another small cupped oyster that seems different from these 2 species and resem...
