First European Interlaboratory Ring Test Study to Detect DNA of Crayfish and the Crayfish Plague Pathogen From Water Samples

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This European interlaboratory ring test highlights how methodological differences affect eDNA‐based detection of crayfish and the crayfish plague pathogen, emphasizing the need for harmonized protocols to improve reliability in conservation and disease monitoring efforts.

Is Aphanomyces astaci Losing its Stamina: A Latent Crayfish Plague Disease Agent From Lake Venesjärvi, Finland

Freshwater Crayfish, 2020
The crayfish plague disease agent, Aphanomyces astaci, has coevolved with the native European crayfish since its arrival to mainland Europe in the 1860s. There are indications that some of the A.

Temporal variation in the prevalence of the crayfish plague pathogen, Aphanomyces astaci, in three Czech spiny-cheek crayfish populations

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
North American crayfish species are natural hosts of the crayfish plague pathogen Aphanomyces astaci. The spiny-cheek crayfish Orconectes limosus, widespread in Central Europe, is the main reservoir of A.

Protocols for studying the crayfish plague pathogen, Aphanomyces astaci, and its host-pathogen interactions.

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2023
The crayfish plague caused by the pathogen Aphanomyces astaci has decimated the European and Asian populations of freshwater crayfish and represents an important threat to the other highly susceptible crayfish species in the world, such as the Australian,

eDNA monitoring as a tool for evaluating the reintroduction of Austropotamobius pallipes after a crayfish plague outbreak.

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2023
The crayfish plague, a severe disease caused by the oomycete Aphanomyces astaci, is responsible for most population declines of susceptible crayfish in Europe.

Parasite DNA detection in water samples enhances crayfish plague monitoring in asymptomatic invasive populations

Biological Invasions, 2021
Invasive species can facilitate the spread of pathogens by first providing asymptomatic host reservoirs, and then driving disease outbreaks in native populations through pathogen spillover.
