A fucoidanase, which was screened from the heptopancreas of Patinopectin yessoensis, was fractionated according to by ammounium sulfate precipitation and anion exchange chromatography. The crude fucoidanase activity was hydrolyzed a small amounts of fucoidan agar and not arrageenan. The crude enzyme hydrolyzed fucoidan to produce oligosaccha-rides of fucose, glucose, maltose maltotriose and maltoteraose as the reaction products.

우리나라 동해안에서 주요 양식대상종으로 각광을 받고 있는 가리비의 산란유발은 종묘생산시 생산성을 높이는 가장 중요한 요소라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 자극방법에 따른 가리비의 산란유발 효과와 유생사육에 관하여 조사한 결과, 가리비의 생식소 지수는 4월에 암수 각각 32.4와 33.2로 최고치를 보였고, 정자현탁액 첨가구에서 개체당 백만개 이상과 80%이상으로 가장 좋았다.

The seasonal variations of digestive diverticula in the scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis culturing by sowing method were studied by microscopic observations and individual measuring of the shells collected monthly from Abashiri Bay located in Hokkaido, Japan. Digestive diverticula index revealed the seasonal variations which showed the highest value in May and July, and the lowest value in December through April. The highest number of tubules per $mm^{2}$in the preparation of digestive diverticula was counted in March. But, in September and October the number of tubules decreased to the lowest value. The relationship between gonad index(X) and percent of lipid tubule(Y) as an indicator for the transference of lipid in digestive diverticula into the gonad was expressed by an exponential equation, $Y=145.6X^{-0793}$. It was suggested that the lipid in digestive diverticula showed the seasonal variations might be transferred into the gonad.

The genetic relationship was examined with PCR-RAPD markers among three scallop species, Chlamys farreri farreri, Patinopecten yessoensis, and Agropecten irradians. Six primers were selected from 60 primers used to compare PCR-RAPD profiles among species. All primers showed distinct RAPD band patterns between the three species. In Chiamys farreri farreri, the morphological characteristics such as shell size and color were considerably different between the two geographical populations. RAPD profile, however, showed that no significant genetic differences were found between the two geographical populations. Polymorphic alleles were observed within a population of each species. Thus, PCR-RAPD markers are useful in identifying scallop species and in understanding scallop population genetic structure.

Electrophoretic analysis was carried out to elucidate genetic relationships of four Korean scallops, Patinopecten yessoensis, chlamys ferreri ferreri, Chlamys swifti and Amusium japonicum japonicum, and of a Chinese population of C. ferreri ferreri purchased form a market. Glucose phosphate isomerase banding pattern was highly varied among eight loci. Three populations of C. ferreri ferreri were more closely clustered in a dendrogram within the range of Nei＇s genetic similarity values of 0.730-0.830. P. yessoenensis and Chlamys swifti were clustered with genetic similarity value of 0.647. These two clusters were lineated at the value of 0.598. A. japonicum japonicum was clustered with other three species at value of 0.541.

Unexpected mass mortality has been one of the drawbacks in front of the stable production of Japanese scallop (Patinopecten yessoensis) on the Gangwon coasts of the East Sea. The preliminary data from our routine observation revealed that the mortality appeared to be related to variation of water temperature in the farming site and the degree of the mortality was dependent on scallop strain. The present study performed to verify the preliminary findings exhibited that the mortality was closely related to daily temperature variation rather than monthly variation. Daily temperature variation was particularly damageable to the scallop during the temperature elevation period. Scallops from hatchery seeds (Chinese strain) were more tolerant against the temperature variation over those from wild seeds. The hatchery scallop gain of the temperature tolerance was probably due to their larval experience to higher temperature in the hatchery as well as their maternal genetic acclimation to upper temperature extreme of the Chinese environment which was recently found.

Toxicity and toxin compositions of wild and cultured scallops (Patinopecten yessoensis), collected from coastal waters near Kangnung of East Sea, were examined from January to June, 1997. By mouse bioassay methods, the toxicity was detected with low toxicity of $2 MU\;g^{-1}$, and paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxin was detected in the specimens from 30 April to 15 May by HPLC. GTXs and PXs were identified as the major toxin components.

Few studies on parasitic scutica-like ciliates (SLCs) influencing larval growth and survival during the seed production of the Japanese scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis have been performed in spite of relatively high magnitude of their infectious damage to the larvae. In the mass seed production of the scallop, SLCs were never infectious during D-larval stage which lasted 6 to 7 days. Indeed, the infection first occurred in 2 to 4 days after first umbo-staged larvae. A regular selection of active larvae in swimming behavior kept larval SLC infection low throughout the culture compared to unselected control (P<0.05) in which all the larvae alive were contained. Higher infection frequencies of the unselected control resulted in lower larval survivals and wider range of larval size distribution that drove larval attachment rate lower. To the worse, the nursery spats from the higher SLC infection exhibited a retarded growth and elevated occurrence of abnormal scallop.

Myostatin (GDF8) is a growth factor that limits muscle tissue growth and development in vertebrates. We isolated a myostatin-like gene (Py-MSTN) from the marine invertebrate, the scallop Patinopecten yessoensis. Py-MSTN was highly expressed in the adductor muscle and in the gill unexpectedly. Amino acid analysis showed that Py-MSTN has 49% amino acid sequence identity and 64% similarity to human myostatin (Hs-MSTN), and 42% identity and 61% similarity to myoglianin, the only invertebrate homolog. These results indicated that Py-MSTN may be functionally similar to the vertebrate MSTN than the invertebrate homolog. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that Py-MSTN is an ancestral form of vertebrate MSTN and GDF11 and does not belong to other $TGF-{\beta}$ family members. Molecular modeling showed that Py-MSTN exhibits a similar tertiary structure to mammalian BMP7, a member of $TGF-{\beta}$ family. In addition, the amino acid residues which contact extracellular domain of the receptor were relavively conserved. Given these results, we propose that Py-MSTN is a functionally active member of the $TGF-{\beta}$ family and is involved In muscle growth and regulation.
