Abstract
This study comprehensively evaluates the phenotypic traits, nutritional profiles, and genetic diversity of three cultured populations of Portunus pelagicus from Guangdong Province, China, namely from Shenzhen (PpSZ), Zhuhai (PpZH), and Chaozhou (PpCZ). We analyzed key nutritional components, including moisture, ash, crude fat, crude protein, total sugar, amino acids, and fatty acids. Notably, significant differences in total sugar content (p
