Abstract：The following studies were conducted in this project：the oyster complete genome sequencing， structure analysis，gene annotation，functional genes identification，and single nucleotide polymorphism （SNP） discovery.We successfully assembled the oyster genome through a combined strategies of fosmid clones pooling and hierarchical assembly.The contig N50 and scaffold N50 of the genome were 19.4 Kb and 401 Kb respectively.The sequencing depth was as high as 800 fold of the genome size. The assembly of the genome provided basis for further biological studies. We then analyzed the oyster genome structure. The polymorphism across the whole genome was as high as 2.3%， while the repeat sequences was as rich as 36%. More than three million SNPs were identified. The SNP proportion from protein coding regions was far lower than that from noncoding regions.More than 28 000 genes were annotated. The gene function was primarily studied through the RNA-seq of samples from 38 development stages.Many important developmental gene families were identified， while some of them were further studied.A total of 1 307 and 526 genes were identified to be female and male specially expressed respectively， including some important maternal and paternal effect genes， such as the K81 gene. We also found that the SoxH gene specially expressed in male gonad，showing that this gene should be one of the key regulatory factor in male determination. Phylogeny analysis was conducted on some important developmental families， including ～130 Homeobox genes， ～20 Fox genes， ～10 Wnt genes. For some key genes such as epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） and Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Proteins （SREBPs） were further studied using hybridization in situ and recombinant protein expression techniques. We identified large number of SNP markers across the whole genome and transcription regions. As many as 1 500 SNP markers were validated in some oyster populations. At the same time， the association analysis on the SNPs from heat shock proteins （HSP） and insulin-like peptide with phenotypes suggested some SNPs significantly correlated with the growth characters of oyster. As few genome data was available in Lophotrochozoans， the oyster genome sequence provided important data for the studies on biological diversity and evolutionary biology， as well as the study on the molecular mechanism of oyster adapting the intertidal environment. The study gave deep insight into the molecular mechanisms of molluscan development， shell formation， and larval evolution of marine invertebrates. It also enriched the marine gene resources， provided large number of SNP markers， and provided foundation for the oyster molecular breeding.
