Despite its ecological significance and commercial value, population genetic studies on this gastropod remain limited in Vietnam. This study provides the first genetic insights into <i>B. areolata</i> from the coastal waters of Vietnam, based on 105 newly generated cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene sequences. This species exhibited 11.2%–18.5% inter-specific genetic divergence from other congeners and formed a monophyletic clustering in phylogenetic analyses. Low intraspecific divergence (0.2%–0.3%) combined with species delimitation approaches, suggesting the potential presence of cryptic diversity possibly due to local adaptation of <i>B. areolata</i> across its distributional range. The haplotype network analysis identified 26 haplotypes, including a dominant central haplotype. Consistent with this pattern, AMOVA and Mantel test results indicated no significant genetic structuring among the examined populations and revealed a negligible, non-significant relationship between geographic distance and genetic differentiation, confirming the absence of an isolation-by-distance signal within the region. The presence of a dominant and widely shared haplotype confirms a high level of genetic connectivity among <i>B. areolata</i> populations across the coastal waters of Thailand, Vietnam, and China. In addition, the presence of several unique haplotypes across the study regions may indicate population-level isolation of this marine gastropod, potentially driven by demographic separation and microhabitat-specific adaptation in coastal environment. These findings underscore the reduced population genetic structure of <i>B. areolata</i> in Southeast and East Asia, which may increase the risk of inbreeding depression. Nevertheless, this genetic information can guide cross-breeding efforts among populations with distinct haplotypes to enhance breeding success and promote sustainable aquaculture development.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Unravelling the population genetic dynamics of the ivory snail (<i>Babylonia areolata</i>) in Vietnam: Guiding sustainable aquaculture development","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-02 01:37:45.489191","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Marine gastropod · Mitochondrial DNA","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2026,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2026-05-26","DateCreate":"2026-05-26","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1007/s41208-026-01129-w"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":440361,"PubliDate":2026,"Pagination":"107","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"42","Issue":"2","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":44043,"SerRR":"Thalassas.
