First Molecular Record of the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas, Thunberg 1793) in the Marmara Sea, Turkey
The Pacific oyster (Crassostreagigas) has a very important economic potential for aquaculture, but on theother hand, is among the highly invasive species in the world and within theMediterranean ecosystem. In the 1960s, C. gigas was brought to Europefor aquaculture in the Mediterranean and Black Sea...

The Pacific oyster (Crassostreagigas) has a very important economic potential for aquaculture, but on theother hand, is among the highly invasive species in the world and within theMediterranean ecosystem. In the 1960s, C. gigas was brought to Europefor aquaculture in the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions from Japan andCanada. The Turkish waters are the part of the Mediterranean Sea, which is theworld’s most invaded sea. The invasion of alien species results from marinetransportation and aquaculture activities of non-native species. A heavymaritime traffic is also present in the Marmara Sea, which connects the BlackSea and Mediterranean Sea. The identification of the invasive species and theirdistributions is very prominent in terms of protecting natural habitat andmonitoring the effects of invasive species. In this study, 30 individuals,morphologically identified as C. gigas, were collected from Bandırmabay. The genomic DNAs were extracted from each sample’s muscle tissue usinguniversal salt extraction method. Partial sequences of COI and 16SMitochondrial DNA loci of the sample DNAs were obtained for speciesidentification.
