Shell proteins were extracted from larval Hong Kong oysters (Magallana hongkongensis) after exposure to control (pH 8.1) and adverse carbonate chemistry (pH 7.4).
Here we reported 226 sperm proteins from the Hong Kong oyster Crassostrea hongkongensis. Proteins extracted from three sperm samples were separated by SDS-PAGE, analyzed by LC-MS/MS and identified using Mascot.
Low salinity is one of the main factors limiting the distribution and survival of marine species. As a euryhaline species, the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas can be tolerant to relative low salinity. Through Illumina sequencing, we generated two transcriptomes with samples taken from gills of oyst...
Thermal exposure of sessile marine animals inhabiting estuarine intertidal regions is a matter of serious concern. The Hong Kong oyster, Crassostrea hongkongensis is one of the dominant sessile inhabitants of marine intertidal region which undergoes large seasonal temperature fluctuations every year...
