Abstract excerpt
A number of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) with golden shell background color were obtained which show great potential to develop a niche market. To improve the selective breeding progress of true-breeding strains with complete golden oysters, research was conducted to identify genetic markers linked to the shell color locus. An F1-segregating population was obtained by crossing two oysters with golden shell...
