Abstract:The mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) is a commercially important species for aquaculture and fisheries in China. In this study, a total of 302 polymorphic microsatellite markers have been isolated and characterized. The observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.04 to 1.00 and from 0.04 to 0.96 per locus. The wild populations distributed along Southeastern China coasts showed high genetic diversity (H O ranged from 0.62 to 0.77) and low genetic differentiation (F ST = 0.018). Meanwhile, a significant ass… Show more
