Unlocking the potential of enzymatically hydrolyzed corn gluten meal for improving growth, intestinal health, and stress resistance in juvenile Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

Aquaculture Reports
Enzymatically hydrolyzed corn gluten meal (ECGM), characterized by its low molecular weight, improved digestibility, and antioxidant properties, shows great potential as a functional feed additive in aquaculture.

Starvation induces hepatopancreas atrophy in Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) by inhibiting angiogenesis

BMC Genomics, 2023
Background The hepatopancreas of crustaceans serves as a significant organ for both the synthesis and secretion of digestive enzymes, as well as energy storage. In the event of food shortage, the hepatopancreas can provide energy for survival.

Research on Quantitative Analysis Technology for Pacific White Shrimp Density Based on Environmental DNA

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study developed an environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based quantitative method using real‐time fluorescence quantitative PCR to estimate the biomass of Litopenaeus vannamei, a key farmed shrimp species. It found temperature accelerates eDNA degradation (though eDNA remains detectable for over a month at 26°C), a strong linear correlation between eDNA ...

Conserved Gene Order and Adaptive Evolution in Mitochondrial Genomes of Calappa Crabs: Insights Into Ecological Specialization and Phylogenetic Utility

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents the first complete mitochondrial genomes of five Calappa species, filling a critical gap in genomic resources for the family Calappidae. Our analyses confirm the monophyly of Calappidae, detect positive selection in key energy metabolism genes (ATP6, ND2, ND5), and reveal conserved gene arrangement patterns.

Current Disease Threats for Cultivated Crab Eriocheir sinensis in China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2023
The Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis, is a commercially important crustacean in China due to its great commercial value and compatibility in a variety of aquaculture systems. However, increases in its production have been accompanied by the emergence of various diseases affecting yield, profit, and trading potential. In this study, we review the

The response of digestive enzyme activity in the mature Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis (Decapoda: Brachyura), to gradual increase of salinity

Scientia Marina, 2013
Mature Chinese mitten crabs, Eriocheir sinensis, were exposed to brackish water or seawater as an obligatory part of their reproductive migration. Physiological and biochemical reorganization were needed to adapt them to this migration. To understand the

Salinity–temperature interaction drives metabolic and energetic changes in an Arctic crustacean

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Arctic is shifting towards a prevalence of warm and more saline Atlantic‐like waters. These changes in the marine environment pose significant challenges for the ecophysiology of marine invertebrates. Here, we measured the metabolic enzyme activity of citrate synthase and lactate dehydrogenase, as well as the energy content and level of ...

The Role of Cholesterol during the Ovarian Maturation and Lipid Metabolism of Female Chinese Mitten Crab (Eriocheir sinensis)

Aquaculture Nutrition
In previous study, we found that the cholesterol requirement of Eriocheir sinensis was 0.27%, to further investigate the effects of cholesterol on health status, ovarian maturation, and lipid metabolism of female Eriocheir sinensis broodstock.

The gut microbiome promotes the growth performance of black soldier fly larvae by detoxifying uric acid

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study demonstrates the detrimental effects of exogenous uric acid (UA) on the growth of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, highlighting the role of gut microbiota in UA degradation. We isolated UA‐degrading bacterial strains associated with BSF, including Enterococcus faecalis AHAU24.
