2004-06-01
Abstract excerpt
King scallops (Pecten sp.) are commercially important in regions as distant as Europe, Australia, and Japan, and some species are cultured. The taxonomy of king scallops has been traditionally based in characteristics of the shell. Recently, the analysis of protein and DNA polymorphism has shown that the two forms of king scallops known from Europe, Pecten maximus and Pecten jacobaeus, are the same species in spit...
