Bacterial communities can Microbial symbionts play key roles in the survival, homeostasis vary as a function of tissue types in many organisms (e.g., and development of eukaryotic organisms (McFall-Ngai et al., bivalves, sponges, corals, plants, and humans) due, among others, 2013; Bang et al., 2018). Symbiotic associations between bacteria to differences in host cell functions and/or composition of (among other microbes) and macroorganisms are ubiquitous cellular components (Costello et al., 2009; Antunes et al., 2010; in nature and have been the focus of extensive research. Schmitt et al., 2012; Ainsworth et al., 2015; Coleman-Derr et al., For instance, bacterial communities have been found to have 2016). As a consequence, tissue differentiation is thought to profound impact on host nutrition, pathogen resistance and strongly influence the microbiome of oysters. Yet, most microbial development of immune function, as well as other beneficial surveys of oyster species have been performed on whole body processes (Taylor et al., 2007; Kamada et al., 2013; Mueller homogenates (Beleneva et al., 2007) or single tissues (Trabal and Sachs, 2015; Vandenkoornhuyse et al., 2015; Foster et al., 2012; Trabal-Fernández et al., 2014; Banker and Vermeij, et al., 2017), while the eukaryotic host provides a stable 2018). Understanding oyster-microbial associations requires an environment and a constant nutrient supply for their associated understanding of organ compartmentalisation, since different bacteria. Previous studies have demonstrated that host-associated oyster compartments (hereafter named tissues) may harbour microbial community compositions are not stochastic, but unique microbial assemblages that are linked to the physiological mostly determined by host phylogeny and habitat (Cardenas role of each host compartment.

While recent studies have investigated invertebrates, including crustaceans, polychaetes, echinoderms, the genome, transcriptome (Le Luyer et al., 2019) and phenome tunicates, sponges and corals, have been investigated extensively (Ky et al., 2018) to identify potential links to cultured pearl quality over the last two decades. These studies have demonstrated traits in P. margaritifera, no data relating to its microbiome exists that many marine invertebrates host diverse, core microbial at present. Characterising the microbial composition of symbiont communities that are phylogenetically distinct from those assemblages in P. margaritifera is critical, since these microbial of surrounding waters (Moitinho-Silva et al., 2014; Lokmer communities likely play a role in maintaining oyster fitness (e.g., et al., 2016b; Zhang et al., 2016; Lu et al., 2017), and that Lokmer et al., 2016b) and by extension, may subsequently impact these microbial associations can be host-specific regardless of upon pearl quality. geography (Reveillaud et al., 2014; van de Water et al., 2016; The aim of this study, therefore, is to provide a microbial Brener-Raffalli et al., 2018). Nonetheless, there are several baseline for P. margaritifera and determine the balance biological factors that can contribute to specific variation in between a stable core microbiome and transient microbial microbial communities, such as host genetics and physiology components between pearl oyster tissue types. To do so, we (Jaenike,
