Protein and amino acid composition of wild caught freshwater crayfish (Pontastacus leptodactylus) in the reproductive season

open access: yesNauplius, 2021
Interest in feeding crayfish under culture conditions has increased in the last few years; however, there is still a lack of information on feeding crayfish according to their nutritional requirements (i.e., protein and amino acid dietary demands of ...

Cytology, function and dynamics of stem and progenitor cells in decapod crustaceans

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 2, Page 817-850, April 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Stem cells play key roles in development, tissue homeostasis, regeneration, ageing and diseases. Comprehensive reviews on stem cells are available for the determinately growing mammals and insects and some lower invertebrates like hydra but are rare for larger, indeterminately growing invertebrates that can live for many decades.

Recent developments in male fertility evaluation, sperm cryopreservation and artificial fertilisation, and their potential application to decapod crustacean aquaculture

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 848-889, March 2022., 2022
Abstract To maximise productivity, a better understanding of the underlying causes of subfertility that lead to inferior offspring and high mortality is imperative. In decapod crustaceans, most research has focused on female reproductive performance, with little attention given to male fertility.

Phylogeographic patterns of genetic diversity in Pontastacus leptodactylus (Decapoda: Astacidae): is the hypothesis of the taxonomically rich genus Pontastacus true?

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023
Abstract The narrow-clawed crayfish Pontastacus leptodactylus is a large native European astacid crayfish species distributed in the drainage area of the Azov, Black and Caspian Seas. The species shows immense morphological diversity across its range. Various species and subspecies have been described and, recently, eight species and two

The redclaw crayfish: A prominent aquaculture species with invasive potential in tropical and subtropical biodiversity hotspots

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 1488-1530, June 2021., 2021
Abstract The redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus; hereafter redclaw), native to northern Australia and southern New Guinea, is among the largest freshwater decapods. It matures early and is considered highly prolific as females may lay over one thousand eggs in a single clutch.

The annual cycle of spermatozoa content in the vas deferens and some reproductive parameters in the narrow-clawed crayfish Pontastacus leptodactylus (Eschscholtz, 1823)

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2019
Understanding the annual dynamic of gametes in crayfish is useful for successful management of crayfish population. The annual variations in spermatozoa content of vas deferens, gonado-somatic index (GSI), hepatosomatic index (HSI), vas deferens index ...
