Crab aquaculture is becoming increasingly important for global food security and economic growth, yet the complexities of crab reproduction present significant challenges. The reproductive physiology of crabs is a critical factor in the sustainability and productivity of crab aquaculture. This review comprehensively explores recent advances in the molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying crab reproduction, with a focu...

The increasing high‐end market demand for the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon has brought tremendous industry opportunities. Although the industry has tried its best to increase production, according to the report data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), annual global production has shown no significant upward trend over the past decade. Besides that, newly implemented policies such as seafood safety and food...

Interspecies hybridization has been widely used in the development of aquaculture in fish species but there is not much impact in crustacean species. Several species of crustaceans that have been successfully crossed still have low hatching rates and the hybrids obtained have not met expectations. This review tries to summarize and analyse interspecific hybridization of cultured crustacean species (shrimps, lobsters, crayfish...

Introduction Crustacean predators exhibit diverse trophic interactions across various habitats in aquatic ecosystems. To assess their ecological roles, it is essential to understand their complete dietary spectrum. Recently, DNA-based techniques such as DNA metabarcoding and high-throughput sequencing have provided insights into trophic networks and their response to environmental drivers. Methods In this study, we used these...
