“…The low genetic differentiation of P. trituberculatus is consistent with other studies. The mtDNA haplotype study also suggested that three P. trituberculatus groups from the Korean side of the Yellow Sea have no significant geographical structure [5].…”

“…Most molecular genetic studies for P. trituberculatus have been performed in samples collected from coastal waters near the China and Japan. However, little phylogenetic study has been performed in crabs from Korean coastal water, although genetic polymorphisms of mtDNA [5] and microsatellites [10] have been studied in samples from the Yellow Sea.…”

“…Liu et al [11] and Xu et al [23] studied the genetic differentiation among geographical populations captured from several coastal areas of China, based on the mitochondrial 16S rDNA and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) genes. Particularly, Cho et al [5] performed the phylogenetic analysis using haplotypes of the mtDNA control region in subject with P. trituberculatus collected in the Korean coastal area of the Yellow Sea. However, these mtDNA markers have been shown to have some restriction in application to the various studies of phylogenetic analysis, molecular breeding and individual identification and forensics.…”

The swimming crab, Portunus trituberculatus, inhabits seafloor habitats containing sand or pebbles and is widely distributed throughout the world. The present study investigated genetic polymorphisms of 10 microsatellites in 281 samples of P. trituberculatus collected from four locations along the coastal water of the Korean side of the Yellow Sea (Yeonggwang, Taean, Sorea, and Yeonpyeong-do Island). The number of alleles per locus ranged from 50 to 129, with a mean of 69.5. The observed and expected hetrozygosity varied from 0.111 to 1.000 and from 0.609 to 0.979, respectively. The inbreeding coefficients (Fis) varied among the loci from -0.0207 to 0.8175. The genetic differentiation (Fst) was less than 0.05 (range 0.0020-0.0124). Therefore, the four groups of P. trituberculatus appeared to exhibit little genetic differentiation. The lack of differentiation was confirmed in a phylogenetic tree constructed by the unweighted pair group method with the arithmetic average (UPGMA). The hypervariation between the populations and the lack of genetic differentiation may reflect active gene flow among the Yellow Sea populations and the absence of geographical boundaries. The highly polymorphic microsatellite loci will be useful for molecular and phylogenetic studies, as well as stock management, of swimming crab, which is an important fishery resource.

“…Most phylogenetic and phylogeographic studies of marine crabs use the mitochondrial 16S rRNA and cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) genetic markers (e.g., Levinton et al 1996;Sturmbauer et al 1996;Shih and Suzuki 2008;Shih et al 2009Shih et al , 2010Shih et al , 2012Davie et al 2010;Wong et al 2010Wong et al , 2011Wong et al , 2012. In addition, the mitochondrial control region marker, with highly variable and fast divergence rates (Avise 2000), has also recently been used for phylogeographic studies of crabs, e.g., Portunus trituberculatus (Miers, 1876) (Portunidae) (Cho et al 2009;Guo et al 2012), U. crassipes (Aoki and Wada 2013), Uca boninensis (Ocypodidae) (Shih et al 2013a), Grapsus grapsus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Grapsidae) (Ströher et al 2011), Episesarma versicolor (Tweedie, 1940) (Sesarmidae) (Supmee et al 2012), Ucides cordatus (Linnaeus, 1763) (Oliveira-Neto et al 2007) (Ucididae), Cardisoma guanhumi (Latreille, in Latreille, Le Peletier, Serville & Guérin, 1828, and Discoplax celeste Ng and Davie, 2012 (Gecarcinidae) (Turner et al 2013).…”

Population genetics of the fiddler crab Uca sindensis (Alcock, 1900) (Crustacea: Brachyura: Ocypodidae) from the Arabian Sea

Background: The fiddler crab Uca sindensis (Alcock, 1900) (Crustacea: Brachyura: Ocypodidae) is distributed in the northern coasts of the Arabian Sea (Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait). Its typical habitat is on high intertidal areas with higher salinity, which might restrict its distribution, especially within the Persian Gulf. The purpose of the present phylogeographic study is to understand whether the Strait of Hormuz acts as a barrier to the gene flow of this species. Results: The genetic analyses of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA, cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), and control region (CR) of specimens from various localities showed that there was no genetic differentiation between the populations inside and outside of the Persian Gulf. Conclusions: We conclude that the narrow Strait of Hormuz does not form a barrier for the larval dispersal in this species. Its restricted distribution in the northern Arabian Sea may instead be associated with its preference for higher salinity sediments present in the coasts of this region.

Genetic variation and population structure of swimming crab (Portunus trituberculatus) inferred from mitochondrial control region

et al. 2011

Genetic variation and population structure in Portunus trituberculatus along the coast of China were revealed according to 617 bp of mitochondrial DNA control region. 90 polymorphic sites defined 53 distinct haplotypes, showing a moderately high diversity among 72 individuals sampled from eight localities. Neighbor-joining tree, statistics analyses of gene flow and genetic differentiation index indicated two populations from Beihai and Laizhou had differentiated. The population from Yingkou, Dandong, Laizhou and Beihai had smaller genetic diversity compared to that from Ningbo, Lianyungang, Qingdao and Japan according to the genetic distance. And mantel test showed significant positive correlation between genetic distance and geographic distance for P. trituberculatus. TCS parsimony network suggested that all the animals sampled were probably the result of recent divergence from a common ancestral haplotype but for Laizhou population. Moreover, the haplotype distribution appeared to correlate with a recent colonization followed by localized genetic differentiation. Mismatch distribution results suggested that Ningbo, Yingkou, Qingdao, Lianyungang and Japan populations, particularly Dandong population had experienced a sudden demographic or spatial expansion. The Pleistocene glaciations might contribute to this process.
