The Na+/K+/2Cl− cotransporter (NKCC) gene encodes a critical membrane transporter involved in cellular ion homeostasis and plays a pivotal role in osmoregulation and salinity adaptation in aquatic organisms. This study identified and validated SNP markers in the NKCC gene associated with low-salinity tolerance in Scylla paramamosain. Four SNPs (g.196C>A, g.8374T>A, g.8385T>A and g.91143T>A) were screened and genotyped in low-s...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) is highly transmissible and pathogenic. Patients with mild cases account for the majority of those infected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Although there is evidence that many patients with COVID-19 have varying degrees of attentional impairment, little is known about how SARS-COV-2 affects attentional function. This study included a high-risk healthcare p...

Dietary intake is an essential source of energy and nutrients, and plays an irreplaceable role in the breeding of S. paramamosain seedlings. In this study, live Artemia nauplii (LA), compound feeds (CF), frozen copepods (FC) and frozen adult Artemia (FA) were utilized as feed during the megalopa stage. To determine the impact that diet has on the metabolism of crablets that underwent metamorphosis from the megalopa stage, anal...
