METHOD FOR PRODUCING PINCTADA FUCATA MARTENSII OF JAPAN GROWTH

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To actualize Pinctada fucate martensii of Japan growth suitable for culture without extremely changing properties of Pinctada fucata martensii of Japan growth, fear of introduction of unknown infections diseases and blood of extraneous Pinctada fucata martensii in a method for producing Pinctada fucata martensii of pure Japan growth useful in pearl culture.;SOLUTION: Pinctada fucata martensii of Japan growth is artificially hybridized to Pinctada fucata fucat living in the sea area of Keichoukan islands in Okinawa Prefecture. The seedling shell thus obtained can produce seedlings of Pinctada fucata martensii of Japan growth which avoid the appearance of inbreeding depression, has a stronger high temperature resistance than the case of intact Pinctada fucata martensii, resistance to infectious diseases and activity.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2001,JPO
