The giant freshwater prawn
Macrobrachium
rosenbergii
distributed from tropical to subtropical regions
is a warm-water species
and its survival temperature is 14–35 °C
which greatly limi
ts its culture cycle and culture area in China. Therefore
it is urgent to cultivate a new high quality
high yield variety with improved cold-resistance
but the genetic parameters for cold-resistance traits are unknown in
M
.
rosenbergii
. In this study
the cold-resistance of adult
M
.
rosenbergii
populations was tested using the indoor artificial cooling method. Individuals were selected from 139 families of Shufeng G3 generation and cultured for 200 days. A linear mixed model was constructed by ASReml-R to evaluate the genetic parameters of the cold-resistance trait (cooling degree hours
CDH) and growth traits (body weight
BW
and body length
BL) based on the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) method. The results show that the heritability of CDH was low (0.12±0.05)
while the growth traits (BW and BL) had low to moderate heritability
with 0.20±0.06 for BW and 0.06±0.04 for BL. The phenotypic and genetic correlation between BW and BL was significantly positive
but significantly negative phenotypic and genetic correlations were detected between CDH and BW and between CDH and BL. Furthermore
the analysis of the differences between cold-resistance and phenotypic traits showed that the female reproductive status
exoskeleton hardness and claw number of adult prawns had a great influence on the cold-resistance of
M
.
rosenbergii
(
P<
0.05)
indicating that adults with claws and hard exoskeletons are preferred as parents in subsequent breeding selection. The present results can be attributed to the selection and breeding of a new cold-resistant variety of
