The signal crayfish is vulnerable to both the As and the PsI-isolates of the crayfish plague [PDF]
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.

Long-term changes in the prevalence of the crayfish plague pathogen and its genotyping in invasive crayfish species in Czechia [PDF]
The widespread presence of North American alien crayfish in Europe is a major driver of native crayfish population declines, mainly because they are chronic carriers of the oomycete Aphanomyces astaci responsible for crayfish plague.

Crayfish plague affects juvenile survival and adult behaviour of invasive signal crayfish. [PDF]
AbstractThe 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. The North American signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) is a known carrier ofAphanomyces astaci, an oomycete pathogen ...

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