The effects of overwintering temperature on the survival of female adult mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, under recirculating aquaculture systems as examined by histological analysis of the hepatopancreas and expression of apoptosis-related genes

Kaijia Yu et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of overwintering temperature on the survival, antioxidant capacity, and heat shock protein (HSP) gene expression in Scylla paramamosain. The results showed that the survival rates were highest at 16 degrees C and lowest at 8 degrees C. Histological examination revealed that the hepatopancreas tissue structure remained intact at 16 degrees C and 20 degrees C, but showed signs of vacuolation and indistinctness at 12 degrees C and 8 degrees C. The 8 degrees C group exhibited high levels of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, and low levels of total antioxidant capacity and superoxide dismutase in the hepatopancreas. The expression of Hsp60 and hsp70 genes was upregulated at 8 degrees C, while hsp10, hsp40, hsp90, and grp78 genes were downregulated. Furthermore, DNA damage and apoptosis were more pronounced at lower temperatures, with the 8 degrees C group showing the highest apoptosis index. Overall, these findings highlight the importance of temperature control in mud crab overwintering.

Light intensity impacts on growth, molting and oxidative stress of juvenile mud crab Scylla paramamosain

Shujian Chen et al.

Summary: The study revealed that light intensity can affect the growth performance, molting frequency, stress levels, and antioxidant capacity of Scylla paramamosain. The optimal light intensity for specific growth rate and antioxidant enzyme activity was found to be 10 W m- 2.

High-intensity light of full-spectrum LED promotes survival rate but not development of the larval swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus

Juan Dou et al.

Summary: The study found that Portunus trituberculatus larvae require light to complete their larval cycle, and the light requirement decreases as they develop from zoeal to megalopal stage and into young crabs.

Development and validation of SNP genotyping assays to identify genetic sex in the swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus

Junkai Lu et al.

Summary: The study validated two sex-linked SNPs from simplified genomic data, providing a rapid test for sex identification in Portunus trituberculatus, and revealed significant genetic evidence from heterogametic genotypes in males supporting an XX/XY sex determination system.
