Aphanomyces astaci isolate from latently infected stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium) population is virulent

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2017
Aphanomyces astaci infection is the cause of crayfish plague in European crayfish. Here the virulence of an A. astaci As strain isolated from apparently healthy stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium) from Slovenia was compared to that of the Psl-Puujärvi A.

The Oxidosqualene Cyclase from the Oomycete Saprolegnia parasitica Synthesizes Lanosterol as a Single Product [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The first committed step of sterol biosynthesis is the cyclisation of 2,3-oxidosqualene to form either lanosterol (LA) or cycloartenol (CA). This is catalyzed by an oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC). LA and CA are subsequently converted into various sterols by

An assessment of post-plague reintroduced native white-clawed crayfish, a Ustropotamobius pallipes, in the Sherston Avon and Tetbury Avon, Wiltshire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
This article reports on the success of reintroducing native crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes) in the Sherston and Tetbury Avon, following extinction of the population from crayfish plague.

Temporal dynamics of the immune response in Astacus astacus (Linnaeus, 1758) challenged with Aphanomyces astaci Schikora, 1906 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
One of the main drivers of biodiversity loss in freshwater ecosystems are alien invasive species. In Europe, pathogen Aphanomyces astaci Schikora, 1906, is considered as one of the most problematic invasive species, as its introduction caused the severe ...

The UK risk assessment scheme for all non-native species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
1. A pest risk assessment scheme, adapted from the EPPO (European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation) scheme, was developed to assess the risks posed to UK species, habitats and ecosystems by non-native taxa. 2.

Diagnostic Tests and their Application in the Management of Soil- and Water-borne Oomycete Pathogen Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oomycete diseases cause significant losses across a broad range of crop and aquaculture commodities worldwide. These losses can be greatly reduced by disease management practices steered by accurate and early diagnoses of pathogen presence ...

Water chemistry and endangered white-clawed crayfish: A literature review and field study of water chemistry association in Austropotamobius pallipes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Populations of the endangered white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes) have rapidly declined in distribution and density in recent decades as a result of invasive crayfish, disease and habitat degradation.

Characterisation of Aphanomyces astaci’s virulence: from phenotype to genome

open access: yes
European crayfish species are considered keystone in freshwater ecosystems. As such, their conservation is of paramount importance to prevent biodiversity decline and loss of ecosystem function. Unfortunately, today, European crayfish species are among the most threatened crayfish species worldwide.
