We, therefore, conducted field surveys to investigate factors related to growth and mortality rates of bottom-cultured scallops after release. Specifically, we focused on the effects of total antioxidant capacity (TAOC) and three key enzymes involved in antioxidant and metabolic function:glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Across summer and winter, we also measured the relative mRNA expression of GPT and SOD to understand their seasonal variation in the scallops, along with how such variation correlated to growth and mortality. Results show that bottom cultured scallops experienced mass mortality during the first six months post-release. During winter (December), scallops grew more rapidly and suffered less mortality than in summer (August). The observed lower performance probably resulted from less advantageous environmental factors during the summer seasons, such as high temperature and low dissolved oxygen. These environmental stressors enhance protein consumption while decreasing energetic resources in scallops. Furthermore, scallops in summer exhibited high antioxidant levels that probably competed for energy with process integral to growth and survival. These negative factors combined to elevate mortality rates. In conclusion, we provided evidence suggesting correlations between metabolic/antioxidant activity and growth and mortality of bottom-cultured yesso scallops. These correlations implied us an accurate method to estimate the performance of bottom culture system. Suggestions about innovative aquaculture techniques were also discussed in the study. Our results might provide a possible guideline to the improvement of bottom culture techniques for this commercially valuable seafood species.展开更多

Following about 20 years’ artificial culture, we need DNA markers for genetic research. Microsatellites recently have become popular markers in a variety of genetic investigations. In this research, we isolated microsatellite DNAs from the Japanese scallop Patinopecten yessoensis genome with magnetic beads. As a result, 136 positive clones were identified from 192 clones,and 179 microsatellites were found. Among the 179 microsatellites, 50.8% were perfect, 43.0% were imperfect and the rest were compound type (6.1%). Finally, 85 microsatellite primers were designed by software Primer Premier 5.0, and 40 pairs were screened; 15 loci showed polymorphism. In these microsatellite loci, genetic diversity was analysed in 2 cultured populations. The average number of allele (A) ranged from 3.27 to 3.40; the average heterozygosity (H_o) in 2 populations was 0.447 to 0.540; average excepted heterozygosity (H_e) was 0.468 to 0.493; and average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.443 to 0.463. The genetic distance was 0.1155 and genetic identity was 0.8909. Thirteen microsatellite loci except HLJX-028 and HJLX-031 could be used for genetic展开更多
