Inheritance of the general shell color in the scallop Argopecten purpuratus (Bivalvia: Pectinidae).

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Winkler F M, Estévez B F, Jollán L B, Garrido J P

Abstract excerpt

Although some external coloration and pigmentation patterns in molluscan shells may be attributable to environmental factors, most variation in these phenotypic characters depends on uncomplicated genetic mechanisms. Genetic research on inheritance of color variations in the north-Chilean scallop (Argopecten purpuratus) has now been expanded to analyze color segregation in juvenile scallops produced under...
