Identification of a species diagnostic character for instar and juvenile mud crabs (Genus Scylla)

2018-04-01

Abstract excerpt

A species diagnostic character in instar and juvenile Scylla spp. allows for more focused use of resources in farms, enhanced research in wild populations and improved culture practices into preferred species. Species identification using molecular methods entails extraction of soft tissue that can be fatal to early developmental morphs. This prevents downstream applications that require live samples. In this stud...
