ABSTRACT
The main goal of the present study was to evaluate the influence of thermal exposure on Vibrio population and HSP genes expression (HSP 90, HSP70, and HSP20) in rayed pearl oyster (P. radiata). To this end, the oysters were reared for 30 days at temperatures of 22 °C (control), 25 °C, 27 °C, and 29 °C. The results showed that five dominate Vibrio strains including Vibrio hepatarius, V. harveyi, V. alginolyticus, V. parahaemolyticus, and V. rotiferianus were identified. The highest population of V. parahaemolyticus, V. alginolyticus, and V. harveyi, was found in 29οC group. According to real-time PCR, mantle exhibited the highest expression levels of HSP20, HSP70, and HSP90 genes. A higher level of HSP20 expression was observed at high temperatures (25 °C, 27 °C, and 29 °C) in the gonad and mantle compared to the control group (22 °C) while decrease in HSP90 expression level was recorded in 25 °C, 27 °C, and 29 °C groups. HSP20 expression level in adductor muscle was remarkably down-regulated in 27 °C and 29 °C groups. In this tissue, HSP70 was detected at highest levels in the 29οC group. In mantle, HSP90 gene expression was lowest at 22 °C water temperature. Several Vibrio strains have been identified from pearl Gulf oyster that haven't been previously reported. The identification of dominant Vibrio species is essential for epidemiological management strategies to control and prevent Vibrio outbreaks in pearl oyster farms. The expression pattern of HSP genes differs in rayed pearl oyster tissues due to differences in their thermal tolerance capability and physiological and biological characteristics. The present study provides useful molecular information for the ecological adaptation of rayed pearl oysters after exposure to different temperature levels.
