摘要

Abstract

The red swamp crayfish

Procambarus clarkii

is an economically important species especially in China. Their exoskeleton places serious constraints on growth and culture management. Their growth is achieved through intermittent molting/ecdysis. The longitudinal genetic dynamics for growth-related traits at different ecdysial points in

P. clarkii

has been unclear to date. In this study

conditional genetic analysis was carried out for growth-related traits (body weight

body length

chela length

and cephalothorax length) based upon a mixed genetic model with conditional additive

dominance

and genotype by environment effects in

P. clarkii

. A complete diallel cross was made among three geographic populations of

P. clarkii

for the genetic mating design. Results of the conditional genetic analysis showed that from 4

molt to 9

molt the conditional additive variations were increased significantly whereas the conditional non-additive genetic variations (dominance and genotype by environment interaction) were decreased significantly for these growth-related traits. This indicated that lots of new expression of additive effect genes for body weight

body length

chela length

and cephalothorax length occurred during ontogeny

and environment played a significant role in the expression of genes affecting these growth-related traits. Growth of the four traits was mainly affected by non-additive genetic effects in early developmental stage (prior to 4

molt). The cumulative conditional additive variation for the growth-related traits from 4

molt to 9

molt accounted for a large majority of the total conditional additive variations from 2

molt to 9

molt

indicating that this period was very important for the growth of this species. Using the conditional analysis method

dynamics of growth-related traits during an important ontogenetic phase of red swamp crayfish was uncovered. Our results provide valuable insights into refining production of this species.
