| Summer mortalities of the Pacific cupped oyster Crassostrea gigas have been described in the literature for decades. One solution to overcome this problem would be to select animals more tolerant to summer mortalities, as this trait was shown to be highly heritable (Degrémont, 2003). Such selective breeding would strongly benefit from the identification of markers associated to the resistance to allow the development of markers assisted selection. Recently, a set of a new kinds of markers (SNPs) have been developed in the Pacific oyster. These markers were identified and characterized in several genes involved in the immune response and energetic pathways (Sauvage, 2007). In this context, the mapping of SNPs, of 16 new EST-SSR based markers and of... |

| A breeding programme has been undertaken by Ifremer to produce selected Ostrea edulis families which are resistant to Bonamia ostreae, a parasite which is the most significant constraint on aquaculture of this oyster. Using such families, we aimed to identify Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) of resistance/susceptibility to bonamiosis. We used an F2 family derived from a bi-parental cross between a wild oyster and an individual from one of the selected oyster families. A total of 550 F2 individuals from the family cohabited with wild oysters that were injected with the parasite. Mortality was checked daily over six months and heart smears were used on moribund or dying oysters to detect the presence and level of infection of the parasite. Ninety two F2... |
