Preliminary survey of Aphanomyces sp. associated with native and invasive crayfish in the Lower Susquehanna watershed of South Central Pennsylvania

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2020
The oomycete species, Aphanomyces astaci, is well known as the devastating causal agent of European crayfish plague. Despite assumptions of a North American origin, the prevalence and distribution of A. astaci in its presumed native range is unknown.

Thirty years of invasion: the distribution of the invasive crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Italy [PDF]

, 2020
The presence of the red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Italy is documented since 1989, but no comprehensive data are available on its spread through time at the national scale. New confirmed records for Procambarus clarkii are continuously arising

Exploring the eDNA dynamics of the host-pathogen pair Pacifastacus leniusculus (Decapoda) and Aphanomyces astaci (Saprolegniales) under experimental conditions [PDF]

NeoBiota, 2022
The oomycete Aphanomyces astaci causes crayfish plague, a disease threatening native European crayfish. It is carried and transmitted by American crayfish species, which are the original hosts of A. astaci.

Genomic Data Reveal Multiple Introduction Sources and Limited Post-Colonization Gene Flow in Southeast Michigan Invasive Red Swamp Crayfish (<i>Procambarus clarkii</i>). [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Examining the genetic patterns of invasive Red Swamp Crayfish in southeast Michigan, we found evidence of multiple separate introductions along with limited natural dispersal between geographic–genetic groups. We detected evidence of secondary dispersal from early invasive populations consistent with a bridgehead effect and little evidence the heavily ...

First record of the stone crayfish in the Romanian lowlands

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2021
The stone crayfish is a native European freshwater species with significant population declines caused by anthropogenic pressure onto its habitats, climate change and spreading of non-indigenous invasive crayfish and their pathogens (e.g., Aphanomyces ...

Analysis of chitinase expression in the crayfish plague fungus Aphanomyces astaci [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2002
Chitinase, as determined by enzymatic activity in the growth medium and by transcription of the chitinase gene AaChi1, is expressed at a high level during vegetative growth of the crayfish pathogen Aphanomyces astaci and expression is not further stimulated by chitin. Expression is not detected in zoospores and it does not increase to high levels until

May atyid shrimps act as potential vectors of crayfish plague? [PDF]

NeoBiota, 2019
The causative agent of crayfish plague, Aphanomyces astaci Schikora, was long considered to be a specialist pathogen whose host range is limited to freshwater crayfish.

Aphanomyces astaci in Mexico: A new haplotype from dwarf crayfish Cambarellus montezumae

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2023
The crayfish plague is an emerging infectious disease caused by the pathogen Aphanomyces astaci (Oomycota), which is responsible for the decimation of Eurasian freshwater crayfish. This pathogen can coexist with the North American crayfish. These are chronic carriers of the disease as consequence of an immune response that can contain the growth of the
