Bivalve-specific gene expansion in the pearl oyster genome: implications of adaptation to a sessile lifestyle

INTRODUCTION: Bivalve molluscs have flourished in marine environments, and many species constitute important aquatic resources. Recently, whole genome sequences from two bivalves, the pearl oyster, Pinctada fucata, and the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, have been decoded, making it possible to c...
