Of the 533 nucleotides obtained, the A, T, G and C contents were similar, which were 198 bp (37.1%), 206 bp (38.6%), 84 bp (15.8%), 45 bp (8.4%) and 200 bp (37.5%), 205 bp (38.5%), 81 bp (15.2%), 47 bp (8.8%) respectively. There were 49 different sites between the two species, including 21 transition sites, 22 transversion sites and 6 deletion/insertion sites. Furthermore, 361 bp homologous fragment was analyzed to discuss the phylogenetic relationship of 20 Sesarma species. The results showed that AT content (78.6% - 82.9%) was higher than GC content and there were 91 vadable positions of 16S rRNA sequences among the 20 species. Among 3 Sesarma species in China, S. dehaani and S. haematocheir were closely related (d=0.0151); and there were greater genetic distances between S. pficata and S. dehaani I S. haematocheir (d=0.0924/0.0923). The average genetic distances of S. plicata , S. dehaani and S. haematocheir with the North American crabs of genus Sesarma were respectively 0.103 2 ± 0.008 9, 0.0783±0.0105 and 0.072 0± 0.011, which indicated that there were greater genetic differences between China and North American Sesarma crabs and they were monophyletic each other.展开更多
