The invention relates to a culture method of a new
hybrid variety of Argopecten irradias and
Argopecten purpuratus. The culture method comprises the following steps of fertilizing Argopecten irradias eggs with
Argopecten purpuratus sperms to build multiple
hybrid first filial generation lines, selecting excellent
hybrid lines according to
phenotype of each hybrid line, selecting excellent hermaphroditic individuals from the excellent hybrid lines, maturing the excellent hermaphroditic individuals, and then carrying out self-fertilization to build multiple
selfing lines; selecting excellent lines from the
selfing lines, selecting excellent hermaphroditic individuals from the excellent lines, carrying out
selfing and selecting; and carrying out selfing for more than
three generations according to the same method to obtain the new hybrid variety of Argopecten irradias and
Argopecten purpuratus. The obtained new hybrid variety of Argopecten irradias and Argopecten purpuratus has stable inheritance, rapid growth,
large size and wide temperature tolerance range. The culture method also can be implemented by adopting a colony culture method. Since the obtained new hybrid variety of Argopecten irradias and Argopecten purpuratus has the excellent characteristics of Argopecten irradias and Argopecten purpuratus at the same time, the new hybrid variety can be cultivated in Qingdao, Dalian and other northern sea areas and the yield is improved by more than 30% as compared with the yield of bay
scallop.
