Aquatic Animal Health Subprogram: Investigation of Chlamydiales-like organisms in pearl oysters, Pinctada maxima

1. To further develop the current conventional PCRs being used to investigate two CLO’s in pearl oysters and use these PCRs in an attempt to gain further sequence data than that available. An expansion of the current known sequence data will be used to develop a real-time PCR that is specific and...

Aquatic Animal Health Subprogram: Development of a DNA microarray to identify markers of disease in pearl oysters (Pinctada maxima) and to assess overall oyster health

1. To construct a cDNA library using healthy, stressed and OOD-affected oysters. We will use oysters exposed to a range of environmental conditions to make sure that a broad array of stress-response genes are represented in the cDNA library. Cloned cDNAs will be analyzed by PCR to confirm that a...
