Symbionts, including parasites, are usually small and thus have been overlooked for their existence and scientific research. In the context of biological invasion, host shifts between native and non-native species occur. Since symbionts often affect host

Since 1893, crayfish plague, Aphanomyces astaci Schikora, has devastated Finland’s most productive populations of the native noble crayfish, Astacus astacus, causing great losses to once very valuable fisheries and exports.

Experimental infection of white spot syndrome virus in freshwater crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus [PDF]
The signal freshwater crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus was found to be susceptible to infection with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). Histopathological observations of various tissues of virus-injected crayfish showed similar symptoms to those from WSSV-infected penaeid shrimp, but no appearance of white spots on the cuticle or reddish body colour ...

Unraveling multipredator impacts in salmon‐bearing rivers using quantitative DNA metabarcoding
Abstract Ecological impacts of invasive species are mounting as their numbers and geographic extent continue to increase. Across extensive parts of their range, Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) smolts face an expanding gauntlet of nonnative predators during their seaward migration.

ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.
