Discovery and validation of genic single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas
Abstract The economic and ecological importance of the oyster necessitates further research on the molecular mechanisms, which both regulate the commercially important traits of the oyster and help it to survive in the variable marine environment.

Abstract The economic and ecological importance of the oyster necessitates further research on the molecular mechanisms, which both regulate the commercially important traits of the oyster and help it to survive in the variable marine environment. Single nucleotide polymorphisms ( SNP s) have been widely used to assess genetic variation and identify genes underlying target traits. In addition, high‐resolution melting ( HRM ) analysis is a potentially powerful method for validating candidate SNP s. In this study, we adopted a rapid and efficient pipeline for the screening and validation of SNP s in the genic region of Crassostrea gigas based on transcriptome sequencing and HRM analysis. Transcriptomes of three wild oyster populations were sequenced using Illumina sequencing technology. In total, 50–60 million short reads, corresponding to 4.5–5.4 Gbp, from each population were aligned to the oyster genome, and 5.8 × 10 5 SNP s were putatively identified, resulting in a predicted SNP every 47 nucleotides on average.
