ABSTRACT: To elucidate how does the gene expression profiles of whole transcriptome of P.fucata response to acute and gradual seawater acidification and warming, and which genes or functional gene clusters are involved in the stress response to enviromental stressors, we have employed microarray as a tool to identify genes in these stress. For acute temperature and acidity stress treatment, oysters were added into the tanks immediately with the maintaining conditions of temperature 25M-BM-11 M-BM-0C and 31M-BM-11 M-BM-0C, acidity pH7.8M-BM-10.05 and pH7.5M-BM-10.05, salinity 33M-BM-11M-bM-^@M-0 in recirculating seawater. The temperatures and pH values in the studies were near future levels and predicted for 2100 and 2300. The pallial zone of mantle were collected and preserved on the hours of 72 after treatment for subsequent studies. All the collected mantles above were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80M-BM-0C. The conditions of salinity 33M-BM-11M-bM-^@M-0, 19M-BM-11 M-BM-0C and pH8.1M-BM-10.05 (~380 ppm CO2) in pre-culture tanks was as a control. In total, 15 mantle tissue samples from 15 individuals were used for the microarray analysis and 3 samples were used as control .Three biological replicates were employed in each treatment.
