Spatiotemporal Expression and Functional Analysis of PtWnt7b During Limb Regeneration in Portunus trituberculatus

The biological phenomenon of regeneration is observed in many crustaceans, particularly in commonly encountered species, such as shrimp and crabs. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying crustacean regeneration remain poorly understood. The swimming crab, Portunus trituberculatus, is an economically significant species that possesses a remarkable regenerative capacity. This study reports the process of limb regeneration in P. trituberculatus from both morphological and histological...
