Insights into the transcriptomic responses of silver-lipped pearl oysters Pinctada maxima exposed to a simulated large-scale seismic survey
Seismic activity impacted the gene expression and pathways of pearl oysters at distances up to 2000 m from the source after four days of exposure, and at distances up to 1000 m from the source one-month post-exposure. At three- and six-months post-exposure, gene and pathway dysregulations were mostly observed in oysters located closest to the seismic source at 0 and - 1000 m. Overall, our results suggest that oysters successfully activated stress responses to mitigate damage and maintain cellular homeostasis and growth in response to seismic noise exposure.
