Molluscs exhibit diverse shell colors. The molecular regulation of shell coloration is however not well understood. To investigate the connection of shell coloration with pigment synthesis, we analyzed the distribution of porphyrins, a widespread group of pigments in nature, in four Pacific oyster strains of different shell colors including black, orange, golden, and white. The porphyrin distribution was analyzed in oyster mantles and shells by fluorescence imaging and UV spectrophotometer. The results showed that red fluoresce
