Oysters from five continents harbour a vast array of previously unknown RNA viruses, including many putative viruses of vertebrates

The paper characterizes the RNA virome of oysters from five continents, identifying many previously unknown viruses, including those potentially infecting vertebrates.

The genome of Gallaecimonas pentaromativorans strain 10A, isolated from a Pacific oyster, reveals the potential for hydrocarbon degradation and CRISPR-Cas defense

An amplicon panel for high-throughput and low-cost genotyping of Pacific oyster

The paper develops an amplicon panel for genotyping Pacific oysters to support breeding programs and identifies null alleles affecting parentage analysis.

Metatranscriptomics reveals a shift in microbial community composition and function during summer months in a coastal marine environment

The paper uses metatranscriptomics to study microbial community shifts in coastal waters, finding seasonal changes in composition and function linked to temperature and pCO2.

Relative genomic impacts of translocation history, hatchery practices, and farm selection in Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas throughout the Northern Hemisphere

The paper examines genetic variation in Pacific oyster populations across the Northern Hemisphere, identifying genetic differentiation and selection signatures linked to translocation history and aquaculture practices.
