牡蠣為台灣重要經濟水產貝類,屬於軟體動物門雙殼綱牡蠣科。但由於牡蠣的外殼
易因生長環境的不同而有所改變,在進行物種分類時很難只依其外殼形態判別,必
須搭配DNA序列資料。本計畫主要是調查台灣產牡蠣物種多樣性,並建立牡蠣物種之
生命條碼,確立台灣產牡蠣的正確分類系統,闡明種屬間的親緣演化關係,以協助
牡蠣的繁養殖及保種、育種等相關研究利用。

研究報告摘要(英)


Oyster is the most important shellfish culture in Taiwan. It was belongs to the phylum Mollusca, class Bivalvia, order Ostreoida and family Ostreidae. Oysters are highly variable in shell morphology, which was considerably depending on environment, though its variable appearance can make it difficult to identify. However, much of the oyster classification to date is based on shell characteristics. In order to identify correctly, we have to work with DNA sequence data. The purpose of this project is to establish the species database of oyster in Taiwan. The database combines with morphological description, ecological information and DNA sequences, that are important for further oyster taxonomy study and broodstock management
