A Significant Genetic Admixture in Farmed Populations of the Noble Scallop Chlamys nobilis Revealed by Microsatellite DNA Analysis in Southern China

The noble scallop, Chlamys nobilis, is an important bivalve mollusk with high commercial value and is usually farmed in the waters of southern China. To date, very little is known about the genetic diversity and population structure of C. nobilis. In this study, 10 microsatellite loci of four farmed...
