By measuring the fluorescence spectra of pearls from various species of mother oysters, a distinction has already become possible as to whether the pearls are from Pinctada fucata, Pinctada maxima, Pteria penguin or Pinctada margaritifera. In this study, the fluorescence of pearls from freshwater bivalves was measured. The results have made it possible to distinguish freshwater pearls from the ...

Pearl oyster Pinctada fucata is widely cultured to produce seawater pearl in South China, and the quality of pearl is significantly affected by its shell color. Thus the Pearl Oyster Selective Breeding Program (POSBP) was carried out for the shell color and growth traits. The black (B), gold (G), red (R) and white (W) shell strains with fast growth trait were achieved after five successive gene...
