Molting Alters the Microbiome, Immune Response, and Digestive Enzyme Activity in Mud Crab ( Scylla paramamosain )
12 Oct 2021
Abstract excerpt
Crustin) was observed in the hemolymph of crabs during the whole molt cycle, suggesting the modulation of hemolymph microbes by AMPs. Furthermore, the digestive enzymes were found to participate in the regulation of microbiota in hepatopancreas and midgut, consequently providing a suitable condition for the restoration and reconstruction of host-microbiome homeostasis during the molting. This study confirms that...
