Metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis reveals immune and hormone modulation at the molting stage of juvenile mud crabs challenged with Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio alginolyticus

Abstract excerpt

The mud crab ( Scylla paramamosain ) is an important economic breeding species along the southeast coast of China. As a crustacean, molting is critical for growth and reproduction. At each molting, a new external cuticle of mud crab is inherently regenerated, but along with molting the crabs are easily susceptible to pathogenic infection that might result in a low survival rate particularly at juvenile stages. To...
