Widespread occurrence of endogenous cellulase production and glycosyl hydrolase in grapsoid crabs along the land-sea transition indicates high potential for mineralisation of mangrove production
Previous studies on mangrove carbon utilisation and mineralisation were focused on mangrove sesarmid crabs (Grapsoidea: Sesarmidae) because they are initial processors of mangrove organic carbon. Grapsoid crabs from other families and habitats were generally ignored although they also perform variou...
