Prevalence of the crayfish plague pathogen Aphanomyces astaci in populations of the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus in France: evaluating the threat to native crayfish.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Aphanomyces astaci, the crayfish plague pathogen, first appeared in Europe in the mid-19(th) century and is still responsible for mass mortalities of native European crayfish.

Proteomic profiling of the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus egg and spermatophore

open access: yesAnimal Reproduction Science, 2014
Proteins of the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus egg and spermatophore were identified using in-gel digestion, mass spectrometry, and Mascot search. Forty-one and one-hundred-fifty proteins were identified in egg and spermatophore, respectively.

Molecular Characterisation of Endangered White‐Clawed Crayfish Populations in Southern Switzerland

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the phylogeography of the endangered European White‐Clawed Crayfish (WCC) Austropotamobius pallipes species complex in the main tributaries of the Po River basin in southern Switzerland and northern Italy, a diversity hotspot for this species.

REDUCING THE THREAT TO CONTROL INVASIVE SIGNAL CRAYFISH REDUCING: THE POTENTIAL USE OF PHEROMONES

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2003
The need for an effective method of controlling invasive species of crayfish is of utmost importance given the plight of Europe’s native crayfish species. Many techniques have been applied to the growing problem with little success.

River Connectivity in Dammed Areas Studied Through Environmental DNA Metabarcoding at Community and Species Levels

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The field of environmental DNA (eDNA) is rapidly expanding with established applications in biodiversity monitoring, rare species detection and ecological assessment. However, its potential to evaluate species connectivity in fragmented aquatic systems remains underexplored.

Impact of the Highly Invasive Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) on Freshwater Macroinvertebrate Communities

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive non‐native species threaten freshwater ecosystems, disrupting the functioning and structure of the food chain and potentially leading to biodiversity loss. As omnivores, crayfish can modify their environment, directly affecting organisms such as macroinvertebrates.

The role of mitophagy during hematopoiesis in an invertebrate , Pacifastacus leniusculus

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology
Abstract Freshwater crayfish as most aquatic crustaceans live for up to 20–30 years on the bottom of lakes and rivers, constantly exposed to millions of microorganisms. Consequently, they must have an effective immune system to combat and eliminate pathogens.

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

open access: yesEnvironmental 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.
