Abstract
The
blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) is a valuable commercial species. In Thailand, the consumption
of the blue swimming crab is increasing. To construct an effective sustainable
management plan, genetic information is required. Knowledge of natural stock
genetic information can help policymakers design fishing and conservation
management policies to maintain genetic diversity. In our study, we examined
the genetic structure of the blue swimming crab population on the Andaman Sea
coast of Thailand. Partial sequences of the mitochondrial DNA control region (mtDNA CR) with a size of 369-371 base pairs
were studied in 150 individuals collected from five sampling sites along
Thailand's Andaman Sea coast. Seventy-one haplotypes were characterized by 127
polymorphic sites, indicating high haplotype diversity but low nucleotide
diversity across five localities. The multiple tests of population genetic
analysis showed a lack of genetic structure. The absence of genetic structure
was possibly caused by a high level of gene flow due to the larval blue
swimming crab's high dispersal ability. Demographic history findings indicate
that the blue swimming crab population has expanded. The findings of our study
can be used to guide the management of the blue swimming crab in this region of
the Andaman Sea to conserve genetic diversity.

Abstrak
Ketam renang biru (Portunus pelagicus)
adalah spesies komersial yang berharga. Di Thailand,
pengambilan ketam renang biru semakin meningkat. Untuk membina pelan pengurusan mampan yang berkesan, maklumat genetik
diperlukan. Pengetahuan tentang maklumat genetik stok semula jadi
boleh membantu penggubal dasar membentuk dasar pengurusan perikanan dan
pemuliharaan untuk mengekalkan kepelbagaian genetik. Dalam penyelidikan ini, kami mengkaji struktur genetik populasi ketam
renang biru di pantai Laut Andaman, Thailand. Jujukan separa
kawasan kawalan DNA mitokondria (mtDNA CR)
dengan saiz 369-371 pasangan asas telah dikaji dalam 150 individu yang
dikumpulkan dari lima tapak persampelan di sepanjang pantai Laut Andaman,
Thailand. Tujuh puluh satu haplotip dicirikan oleh 127 tapak
polimorfik, menunjukkan kepelbagaian haplotaip yang tinggi tetapi kepelbagaian
nukleotida rendah merentas lima lokaliti. Pelbagai ujian
analisis genetik populasi mendedahkan kekurangan struktur genetik. Ketiadaan struktur genetik mungkin disebabkan oleh tahap aliran gen yang
tinggi disebabkan oleh keupayaan penyebaran tinggi ketam renang biru larva. Penemuan sejarah demografi menunjukkan bahawa populasi ketam renang biru
telah berkembang. Penemuan kajian kami
boleh digunakan sebagai bimbingan pengurusan ketam renang biru di wilayah Laut
Andaman ini untuk memulihara kepelbagaian genetik.
