A survey of allozyme variation and estimates of genetic similarity among three Ostrea species

Three nonsibling Ostrea species (i.e., O. edulis Linne, O. lurida Carpenter, and O. permollis Sowerby) were studied by horizontal protein electrophoresis with relation to levels of genetic variation and similarity. The percentages of polymorphic loci per species were estimated as 27.6, 37.0, and 52....

Zusammenfassung:Three nonsibling Ostrea species (i.e., O. edulis Linne, O. lurida Carpenter, and O. permollis Sowerby) were studied by horizontal protein electrophoresis with relation to levels of genetic variation and similarity. The percentages of polymorphic loci per species were estimated as 27.6, 37.0, and 52.0 for O. edulis, O. lurida , and O. permollis , respectively, based on an examination of 25 to 29 structural loci. The mean observed heterozygosities per individual were estimated as 9, 16, and 15% for O. edulis, O. lurida , and O. permollis , respectively.
