Abstract excerpt
Procambarus acanthophorus is a freshwater crayfish species endemic to Mexico with high aquaculture potential. Monitoring genetic diversity during the early stages of domestication is crucial to avoid the erosion of adaptive potential and ensure the success of breeding programmes. This study analysed changes in genetic variability across four consecutive populations: a wild founder population (G0) and three...
