Abstract excerpt
The swimming crab, Portunus trituberculatus, holds significant economic value in aquaculture, and marker-assisted selection (MAS) offers a powerful strategy to accelerate genetic improvement of growth-related traits. In this study, we performed an association analysis between 40 SSR markers and growth traits in 244 P. trituberculatus individuals. High genetic diversity was observed, with mean Shannon's diversity...
