Evaluating Invasive Marbled Crayfish as a Potential Livestock for Sustainable Aquaculture

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The marbled crayfish (Procambarus virginalis) is a recently discovered freshwater crayfish species, which reproduces by apomictic parthenogenesis, resulting in a monoclonal, and all-female population.

Glutathione as a suitable biomarker in hepatopancreas, gills and muscle of three freshwater crayfish species [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2008
We determined the contents of total glutathione (tGSH), reduced glutathione (GSH), and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) and values of the glutathione redox index (GSH RI) in hepatopancreas, gills, and muscle of three freshwater crayfish species: noble ...

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.

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.

Nonconsumptive predator effects modify crayfish‐induced bioturbation as mediated by limb loss: Field and mesocosm experiments

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
We addressed the implications of limb loss and regeneration for multispecies interactions and their impacts on ecosystem engineering in freshwater stream environments. We included regenerative and nonregenerative crayfish as well as fish predators in a 2

Microplastic burden in invasive signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) increases along a stream urbanization gradient

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Microplastics are a globally pervasive pollutant with the potential to directly impact species and accumulate in ecosystems. However, there remains a relative paucity of research addressing their accumulation in freshwater ecosystems and a near absence ...

Muddied waters: suspended sediment impacts on gill structure and aerobic scope in an endangered native and an invasive freshwater crayfish [PDF]

, 2013
Suspended sediment (SS) loadings in freshwater habitats have increased over the past century and SS is now a significant environmental stressor. Greater tolerance to environmental stressors has been proposed as a factor in the success of aquatic invasive
