INTRODUCTION
 Pearls are unique as the only gems produced by a
living organism.
 These structures are secreted by the mantle (i.e.,
the skin) of pearl oysters in response to irritations
caused by stimuli such as sand grains, molluscs
eggs, parasites, detritus, and other foreign
particles.
HISTORY
 Kokichi Mikimoto, in 1893 created
the world’s first culture pearl by
manually introducing an irritant into
an oyster to stimulate it to form a
pearl.
 Tokishi Nishikawa and Tatsuhei Mise
independently learned the secret to spherical pearl
production. Their discovery is commonly known as
the "Mise-Nishikawa method".
 In India, in October 1972, the CMFRI started a
pearl culture research project at Tuticorin. Success
came in July 1973 when a perfectly spherical pearl
was produced.

PEARL FORMATION
PROTOCOL FOR MARINE
PEARL CULTURE
 Temperature (20 – 25 C°)
 Salinity (above 30 ppt)
 Bottom (Gravelly)
 Depth (Optimum depth at ~ 15m )
 Good phytoplankton production
 Moderate water currents
(I) Environmental conditions for culture:
(II) Selection of oysters for operation:
• age: above 1.5-2 years
• Weight > 25 g (40 mm)
• Stage of maturity spent resting stage
• Overall health: Good, free from infections
(III) Narcotization :
• Narcotization of selected oysters by sprinkling menthol in
the sea water.
(IV) Preparation of graft tissue:
• 2-3 mm square mantel pieces are
prepared.
(V) Implantation:
• Single implantation in the gonad near the intestinal loop.
• Double implantation-close to hepato-pancreas.
(VI) Nursing:
 Implanted oysters are placed in cages.
 Healing of operated tissue takes about 3-4 days.
 Dead oysters are removed.
 Healthy implanted oysters are transferred to culture
cages and suspended at depth of about 2-3 m.
• On bottom
culture
• Raft culture
Rearing methods
• Long line culture
Rearing methods
 Raft culture: Most suitable and appropriate one to farm
the oysters in the sheltered Bays.
 Wooden poles lashed with coir ropes and floated with
the help of buoys moored by 2-4 anchors tied by means
of 15 mm nylon ropes.
 A raft of 6×5 m is found to be more ideal for the pearl
oyster culture .
On bottom culture
• Possible only on the rocky sea
bottom or artificial bottom.
• In an area of 100×3m,300 oyster
cages can be kept . Can be appli
• Can be applied as a temporary means
to accommodate the wild collected
oysters before farming into off shore rafts.
•
 Collapsible or long line raft
 Comprised of 16-20 empty PVC
a row or 4 rows connecting one
another by a chain stretched,and
anchored to all the ends.
• Between the gaps the pearl oyster
cages are suspended.
• Suspended cages get entangled during
the rough weather and get damaged due
to hitting with one another.
ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE
 Importance to cultivators
 Sell meat, shells, and mostly pearls.
 Importance to businesses
 provides oysters to restaurant.
 provides pearls for jewelry business.
 provides oyster shells which can be used as
ornamentals.
 Source of employment
STATUS OF PEARL PRODUCTION
 The world trade of cultured pearl is reported to
be over 3 billion US $ per year.
 India is one of the major importers of pearls
importing pearls worth US $ 4 million every year.
 China is the world's largest producer of freshwater
pearls, producing more than 1,500 metric tons per
year.
• South sea cultured pearls
• Black cultured pearls
• Akoya cultured pearls
