Expressions of molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) during the molting stages of the giant mud crab, Scylla serrata
- In Proceedings of the DLSU Research Congress 2017, De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines, June 20-22, 2017, 2017 - De La Salle University
Survival and growth of mud crabs and any other crustaceans depend on molting. Molting is influenced by several hormones, two of which are Molt-Inhibiting Hormone {MIH} and a molt promoting hormone, the Extracellular ...
