Overview

Meta-analysis evaluates temperature and salinity effects on Scylla spp. larvae survival, indicating optimal conditions for hatcheries.

Key Points

  • This analysis aims to evaluate how temperature and salinity affect the survival of mangrove crab larvae from different Scylla species.
  • Conducted a meta-analysis using 30 selected articles on larval rearing.
  • Followed PRISMA guidelines for literature search across multiple databases.
  • Analyzed survival outcomes in relation to temperature and salinity levels.
  • Temperature mildly affects survival; salinity has a stronger impact.
  • Optimal temperature for S. olivacea is 30 °C, and varying optimal levels from 28 °C to 30.5 °C for others.
  • Optimal salinity levels range from 28 to 31 ppt, varying by species.
  • High confidence and heterogeneity noted, attributed to limited studies and experimental design differences.
