G protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs),a superfamily of integral transmembrane proteins regulate a variety of physiological processes in insects.Juvenile hormone(JH)is known to stimulate Vitellogenin(Vg)synthesis in the f...
This study aimed to characterize the morphological changes in the ovary of the female crab Neptunus pelagicus and to identify specific fractions of vitelloginin and vitelline molecules during primary and secondary vit...
In this mini-review,we provide an up-to-date overview of the delivery methods that have been used for CRISPR/Cas9 genomic editing in crustacean species.With embryonic microinjection as the main workforce for deliverin...
