Adaptation to abiotic stress in the oyster Crassostrea angulata relays on genetic polymorphisms.

Abstract excerpt

Here we describe the whole genome re-sequencing of the Portuguese oyster Crassostrea angulata, an edible cupped oyster of major commercial importance with an important role as biosensor of coastal water pollution. We sequenced the genome of the C. angulata to 29.3-fold coverage using ABI SOLID system. Comparisons of the sequences with the reference assembly of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas), yielded 129...
