PCR-RFLP analysis has been applied to the identification of three clam species: Ruditapesdecussatus (grooved carpet shell), Venerupis pullastra (pullet carpet shell), and Ruditapes philippinarum (Japanese carpet shell). PCR amplification was carried out using a set of primers designedfrom the DNA nucleotide sequences reported for -actins from humans and various animals.Restriction endonuclease analysis based on sequence data of the PCR products of each clam speciesrevealed the presence of species-specific polymorphic sites for MaeIII and RsaI endonucleases.Electrophoretic analysis of the amplicons digested with MaeIII and RsaI produced species-specificprofiles that allowed the genetic identification of the three clam species.Keywords: Species identification; PCR-RFLP; -actin gene; clam species; Ruditapes decussatus;Venerupis pullastra; Ruditapes philippinarum
