Comparative transcriptome elucidates key genes and pathways related to golden phenotype of Crassostrea gigas.

Abstract excerpt

Marine bivalves are economically important and exhibit a remarkable diversity in shell color. The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas stands out as an important economic species, with the successful development of four distinct color strains through selective breeding. While previous studies have shed light on the genetic mechanism underlying color segregation, the precise molecular regulatory mechanisms responsible...
