Sex differentiation in crustaceans is a complex process influenced by various factors, including the androgenic gland and sex-related genes. This study characterized role of Mn-DHCR24 gene oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense). We used bioinformatics to analyze sequence features phylogenetic relationships single gene. The expression patterns across different tissues developmental stages were determined real-time PCR, its localization testis was situ hybridization. RNA interference knock down expression, followed examining changes sex ratio gonadal development at PL10 stage. Additionally, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay measured 17α-methyltestosterone levels, tissue sections characterize development. results indicated that high testis, which critical for sperm maturation differentiation. RNAi experiments showed during reproductive regulation rather than as master further regulated hormone-related genes, influencing steroid biosynthesis pathways. Together, these findings provided valuable insights into genetic hormonal mechanisms M. nipponense, supported monosex culture technology.
