In French Polynesia, the production and exportation of black pearls through the aquaculture of the black-lip pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera provide the second largest economic income for the country after tourism. This industry entirely relies on the collection of natural spats from few highly recruiting lagoons. In recent years, pearl oyster producers have experienced variable success rates in spat collection, with significant spatial and temporal variability in spat supply, driving uncertainty in the future of pearl production. This study combines, for the first time in a farmed lagoon, genetic (SNPs), demographic (sex ratio, age), and biophysical data (larval dispersal modelling) to shed new light on population dynamics, connectivity, and spat... |

The adaptative bleaching hypothesis (ABH) states that, depending on the symbiotic flexibility of coral hosts (i.e., the ability of corals to “switch” or “shuffle” their algal symbionts), coral bleaching can lead to a change in the composition of their associated Symbiodinium community and, thus, contribute to the coral’s overall survival. In order to determine the flexibility of corals, molecular tools are required to provide accurate species delineations and to detect low levels of coral-associated Symbiodinium. Here, we used highly sensitive quantitative (real-time) PCR (qPCR) technology to analyse five common coral species from Moorea (French Polynesia), previously screened using only traditional molecular methods, to assess the presence of... |

The pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifera has the specific ability to produce pearls with the widest range of colours among all pearl oyster species. This pearl colour diversity originates from the mantle biomineralising tissue (graft) of the donor oyster, which is originally responsible for the variety of colours of the inner shell surface. This study aimed to: 1) assess the geographic distribution and establish a first stocklist of the colourful oyster phenotypes used as donors in French Polynesia, and 2) investigate the phenotypic relation between inner shell colouration and the corresponding colour of harvested pearls. With the support of a pearl farmers' network, we investigated the different donor phenotype frequencies among five collection sites (Ahe,... |
