Culture site influence pearl size and recipient oyster growth parameters in Pinctada margaritifera. Correlations existed between pearl nacre thickness and recipient oyster shell thickness, height, and width. Biomineralization gene expression levels of the mantle graft were the same among all the donor oysters. The pearl sac that originated from the mantle graft was not isolated from environmental variations during the culture period.
