Recurring infection by crayfish plague pathogen only marginally affects survival and growth of marbled crayfish [PDF]

NeoBiota, 2022
Invasive alien crayfish threaten the diversity of freshwater ecosystems and native crayfish fauna. In Europe, this is largely due to transmission of the crayfish plague to susceptible native crayfish.

THE EFFECT OF THE LARGE-SCALE INTRODUCTION OF SIGNAL CRAYFISH ON THE SPREAD OF CRAYFISH PLAGUE IN SWEDEN

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2006
Since 1907, coinciding with the arrival of the crayfish plague, the noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) has steadily declined in Sweden. To substitute the noble crayfish fishery lost, mainly due to the plague, and since the species is highly susceptible to ...

The signal crayfish is vulnerable to both the As and the PsI-isolates of the crayfish plague

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014
The carrier status and possible elevated tolerance of the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) against the crayfish plague disease agent (Aphanomyces astaci) has been speculated for several decades.

REINTRODUCTION OF NOBLE CRAYFISH ASTACUS ASTACUS AFTER CRAYFISH PLAGUE IN NORWAY

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2004
The Glomma and Halden watercourses in Norway were hit by crayfish plague in 1987 and 1989. Reintroduction of the noble crayfish started in 1989 in the Glomma and in 1995 in the Halden watercourse.

First evidence of crayfish plague agent in populations of the marbled crayfish (Procambarus fallax forma virginalis)

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014
The introduction of non-indigenous species and associated diseases can cause declines in indigenous flora and fauna and threaten local biodiversity.

Towards an eco-epidemiological framework for managing freshwater crayfish communities confronted with crayfish plague

Journal of Freshwater Ecology
Wildlife diseases figure prominently among the main causes of biodiversity loss worldwide. Especially fungal and fungus-like pathogens are on the rise, wreaking havoc across the tree of life by threatening species persistence and destabilizing ecosystems.

Consequences for lotic ecosystems of invasion by signal crayfish [PDF]

, 2012
PhDNon-native invasive species are major drivers of biodiversity loss and ecosystemlevel modification. The signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is a highly successful invasive species and demonstrates traits often seen in keystone species ...

Crayfish plague affects juvenile survival and adult behaviour of invasive signal crayfish. [PDF]

Parasitology, 2020
The spread of invasive, non-native species is a key threat to biodiversity. Parasites can play a significant role by influencing their invasive host’s survival or behaviour, which can subsequently alter invasion dynamics.

Real-Time PCR Assays for Rapid Identification of Common Aphanomyces astaci Genotypes

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The oomycete Aphanomyces astaci is the etiologic agent of crayfish plague, a disease that has seriously impacted the populations of European native crayfish species.

Money Kills Native Ecosystems: European Crayfish as an Example

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Native European crayfish conservation was triggered by invasion of crayfish plague disease agent, Aphanomyces astaci, starting 1860s in Northern Italy.
