Global Screening of Mud Crab(Scylla Paramamosain) Innate Immunity In GLOBAL SCREENING OF MUD CRAB(SCYLLA PARAMAMOSAIN) INNATE IMMUNITY IN EMBRYOGENESIS Xiaowan Ma, Fangyi Chen, Kejian Wang* College of Ocean and Earth Sciences, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361102, China ABSTRACT Mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) as a vital commercial seafood animal is facing the problem of large scale morality during early life of development. Large amount of sequence data of mature creatures are available within crustaceans by now, however, little is known about the transcriptional activities underlying mud crab embryonic development. Here with the help of RNA-seq analysis, we employed a time-course transcriptional profiling analysis to gain insight into the immune related events in the embryonic developmental stages. Five embryonic stages and one larva stage covering six different developmental stages (zygote, blatula, gastula, eye pigment, heart beating and zoea) uncovered a dynamic transcriptome profile. Hierarchical clustering revealed the onset and peak of transcripts at different developmental stages and demarcated clusters with distinct expression patterns. It reveals a cohort of genes potentially maternally transferred from the female crab to the offsprings. From the time series, proPO cascade and lectins family were among the most abundant expressed immune related genes. Furthermore, our present work led to the study of the dynamic gene expression profile of antibacterial peptides during embryogensis. To the best knowledge, our work provide the first comprehensive list of gene expression profile in the early developmental stages of mud crab.

The Vtg gene, mRNA and protein regulation involve several environmental factors and physiological processes, including gonadal maturation and moult stages, among others. Once the Vtg gene, mRNAs and protein are obtained, it is possible to establish the relationship between the elements that participate in their regulation, which could either be species-specific, or tissue-specific. This work is a systematic analysis that compares the similarities and differences of Vtg genes, mRNA and Vtg between the crustacean species reported in databases with respect to that obtained from the transcriptome of Callinectes arcuatus, C. toxotes, Penaeus stylirostris and P. vannamei obtained with MiSeq sequencing technology from Illumina. Those analyses confirm that the Vtg obtained from selected species will serve to understand the process of vitellogenesis in crustaceans that is important for fisheries and aquaculture. RESUMEN La vitelogénesis de los crustáceos es un proceso que involucra la vitelina, producida a través de la endoproteólisis de su precursor llamado Vitelogenina (Vtg).

Embryos of each species were cultured in vitro at 6 dif- ferent temperatures (18 to 34°C) in artificial seawater to avoid air desiccation; the lower threshold temperatures for embryonic development were estimated using heat summation theory equa- tions. Additionally, partial effective cumulative temperatures (> lower threshold temperature) until hatching were determined for ovigerous females of each species cultured in containers. The relationships between the embryonic growth index values (relative area of the embryonic body vs. total embryo surface) and effective cumulative temperatures were expressed using cubic equa- tions. Lower threshold temperature was estimated to be 12.7 to 14.5°C. The effective cumulative temperature and egg incubation period estimates from the appearance of the embryonic body to hatching were higher in B. latro and C. brevimanus, followed by C. rugosus, C. cavipes, and C. violascens, and lower in C.

BMC Research Notes 2010, 3:315 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1756-0500/3/315 SHORT REPORT Open Access Mud crab susceptibility to disease from white spot syndrome virus is species-dependent Naraporn Somboonna1,2,5*, Seksan Mangkalanan3, Attasit Udompetcharaporn2, Chartchai Krittanai3, Kallaya Sritunyalucksana1,2, TW Flegel1,2,4 Abstract Background: Based on a report for one species (Scylla serrata), it is widely believed that mud crabs are relatively resistant to disease caused by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). We tested this hypothesis by determining the degree of susceptibility in two species of mud crabs, Scylla olivacea and Scylla paramamosain, both of which were identified by mitochondrial 16 S ribosomal gene analysis. We compared single-dose and serial-dose WSSV challenges on S. olivacea and S. paramamosain. Findings: In a preliminary test using S. olivacea alone, a dose of 1 × 106 WSSV copies/g gave 100% mortality within 7 days. In a subsequent test, 17 S. olivacea and 13 S. paramamosain were divided into test and control groups for challenge with WSSV at 5 incremental, biweekly doses starting from 1 × 104 and ending at 5 × 106 copies/g. For 11 S. olivacea challenged, 3 specimens died at doses between 1 × 105 and 5 × 105 copies/g and none died for 2 weeks after the subsequent dose (1 × 106 copies/g) that was lethal within 7 days in the preliminary test.

  • Neuropeptides in the Cerebral Ganglia of the Mud Crab, Scylla
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Neuropeptides in the cerebral ganglia of the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain: transcriptomic Received: 30 May 2015 Accepted: 23 October 2015 analysis and expression profiles Published: 23 November 2015 during vitellogenesis Chenchang Bao1, Yanan Yang3, Huiyang Huang1 & Haihui Ye1,2 Neuropeptides play a critical role in regulating animal reproduction. In vertebrates, GnRH, GnIH and kisspeptin are the key neuropeptide hormones of the reproductive axis, however, the reproductive axis for invertebrates is vague. Knowledge on ovarian development of the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, is critical for aquaculture and resources management of the commercially important species. This study employed Illumina sequencing, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and quantitative real-time PCR techniques to identify neuropeptides that may be involved in ovarian development of S. paramamosain. A total of 32 neuropeptide transcripts from two dozen neuropeptide families, 100 distinct mature peptides were predicted from the transcriptome data of female S. paramamosain cerebral ganglia. Among them, two families, i.e. GSEFLamide and WXXXRamide, were first identified from the cerebral ganglia of crustaceans. Of these neuropeptides, 21 transcripts of interest were selected for further confirmation and all of them were detected in the cerebral ganglia, as well as in other nervous tissues and the ovary. Most of them also had differential expression in the cerebral ganglia during various vitellogenic stages, suggesting their likely involvement in regulating vitellogenesis and ovarian maturation. Overall, these findings provide an important basis for subsequent studies on peptide function in reproduction of S. paramamosain. Neuropeptides are ubiquitous in the nervous system of the animal kingdom from cnidarians to human1.

Before test initiation, mud crab females with an average individual wet weight of 200-300 g were acclimated for 2-3 days and reared together in one concrete tank of 2.0 x 0.5 x 8 m until spawning. After spawning, the spent spawners were unilaterally eyestalk ablated and randomly divided (20 animals/treatment) over three tanks of the same size and subjected to the dietary treatments. Spent spawners were used to eliminate the effect of feeding history. There were only minor differences in reproductive performance between dietary treat­ ments. No differences were observed in the duration of the latency period from eyestalk ablation to spawning. Fecundity was only marginally higher for the broodstock fed the control diet. Also egg quality seemed only slightly affected by the treatments. Egg hatching rates were slightly higher in crabs fed the formulated diets compared to those crabs fed the fresh diet.

  • Chemosensitivity and Role of Swimming Legs of Mud Crab, Scylla Paramamosain, in Feeding Activity As Determined by Electrocardiographic and Behavioural Observations
    Chemosensitivity and role of swimming legs of mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, in feeding activity as determined by electrocardiographic and behavioural observations Gunzo Kawamura, Chi Keong Loke, Leong Seng Lim, Annita Seok Kian Yong and Saleem Mustafa Borneo Marine Research Institute, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia ABSTRACT Swimming crabs have a characteristic fifth pair of legs that are flattened into paddles for swimming purposes. The dactyl of these legs bears a thick seta along its edge. The chemoreceptive and feeding properties of the seta are supported with scientific evidence; however, there is no available data on the sensitivity of the setae in portunid crabs. The underlying mechanisms of the chemo- and mechano-sensitivity of appendages and their involvement in feeding activities of the mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) were investigated using electrocardiography and behavioural assay, which focused on the responses of the mud crab to chemical and touch stimulus. Electrocardiography revealed the sensory properties of the appendages. The dactyls of swimming legs and the antennules were chemosensitive, but not mechanosensitive and vice versa for the antennae. However, the mouthparts, claws, and walking legs were chemo- and mechanosensitive. Only the chemosensitive appendages, including the swimming legs, were directly involved in feeding. The flattened dactyls of the swimming legs were more efficient than the pointed dactyls of the walking legs in detecting the food organism crawling on the substrate. The structural features enhanced the capacity of the crab in Submitted 4 August 2020 coming into contact with scattered food items. This study revealed that the swimming Accepted 18 March 2021 legs are important appendages for feeding in the mud crab.

Zoological Studies 47(6): 720-732. In the mud crab, Scylla paramamosain, the androgenic gland (AG) is an elongated structure, situated along the posterior vas deferens. There are 3 types of cells (types I, II, and III) in different seasons and in different parts of the AG of S. paramamosain. They could be easily distinguished based on the cell size, relative proportion of the nucleus in cells, and the abundance of vacuoles. Type I cells are packed together in a high density and have a small cell size, a relatively large nucleus, and a small amount of cytoplasm. These are newly formed gland cells. Type II cells represent the majority of AG cells with the highest activity during the secretory cycle. They have much more cytoplasm with bigger cell sizes than type I cells. Type III cells are characterized by abundant vacuoles and the disappearance of cell boundaries in some cases, which represent the degeneration stage of the secretory cycle. In different seasons, there are significant differences in terms of gland size, cell boundary, the presence of multinucleated cells, and the occurrence of immature gland cells.
