Netizens posted strange white lobster experts say nothing to do with nuclear radiation

"White lobster, have you ever seen it?" Yesterday (15th), netizen "dly3190" made a group of photos on the forum, the main character is a white strange lobster.

"Will this be related to nuclear radiation?" In the replies, many netizens linked this mutation with the recent earthquake in Japan.

In the replies, there are also many netizens guess that it is a gene mutation, but it is not certain that there is no poison.

In reply, only the netizen “12546572” was not surprised. He told reporters that he had seen the blue lobster himself. “In recent years, lobsters of other colors have been found repeatedly in different parts of the country, and rare bicolor lobsters have also appeared in the United Kingdom. Experts have studied this before and said that it is a phenomenon of variation. The situation is rare but there is no other authoritative explanation.”

Yesterday, the reporter contacted the netizen “dly3190” who posted. He told reporters that the lobster was sent by his girlfriend’s brother on June 13. He said that he was caught in the farmland near the Ningbo Foreign Affairs School and sent him a bucket. “Her brother’s family has several white lobsters. My family’s has been cooked by my mother.”

"dly3190" said that this lobster shell is pure white, no difference with other lobsters, no deformity, and the shell is also hard. "When I first got it, I thought that it was a rot-dried crawfish and I was shocked when I tried to throw it out and throw it away."

"dly3190" said that it was the first time in 27 years to see such a white lobster. It is not known whether it is a genetic mutation. However, he is more concerned about this kind of white lobster can not eat?

Yesterday, the reporter took questions from netizens and consulted the Ningbo Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries. Experts told reporters that the white lobster may be missing a certain gene, causing the lobster's red pigment to not precipitate, and has nothing to do with nuclear radiation.

"This kind of lobster is the first time I saw it." Experts who have studied fisheries for more than 30 years have also been surprised to see photos. However, he told reporters that in fact in the biological world, this situation is still very common.

“Like white dolphin, because there are albino genes in the body, there is a high probability that there is a transparent bubble fish in the goldfish. In fact, this is the same as human albinism. Normally, it is normal, that is, it lacks melanin. It was red in the sun," he told reporters. In addition to skin color, white lobster is as safe as general lobster.
