Mapping 15 years of crayfish plague in the Iberian Peninsula: The impact of two invasive species on the endangered native crayfish. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Crayfish plague, caused by the pathogen Aphanomyces astaci, is one of the main factors responsible for the decimation of the native European crayfish species Austropotamobius pallipes. In Spain, two North American freshwater crayfish species, Procambarus

The Crayfish Plague Pathogen Aphanomyces astaci in Ireland [PDF]
MicroorganismsCrayfish plague is a devastating disease of European freshwater crayfish and is caused by the oomycete Aphanomyces astaci (Ap. astaci), believed to have been introduced to Europe around 1860. All European species of freshwater crayfish are susceptible to

Prevalence, molecular identification and genotyping of the crayfish plague pathogen, Aphanomyces astaci in major narrow-clawed crayfish (Pontastacus leptodactylus Eschscholtz, 1823) populations from Türkiye [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary ResearchCrayfish plague is considered the most important crayfish disease globally. It is caused by the fungus-like agent, Aphanomyces astaci. This study aimed to identify and determine the prevalence of A. astaci using PCR in narrow-clawed crayfish (Pontastacus

Seasonality affects key physiological pathways in Pontastacus leptodactylus during an Aphanomyces astaci epidemic outbreak [PDF]
Scientific ReportsFreshwater crayfish Pontastacus leptodactylus is an indigenous European species of considerable ecological and commercial significance. However, it is highly susceptible to the oomycete Aphanomyces astaci, the causative agent of crayfish plague. Although

The impacts of biological invasions. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
