The genetic variation and population structure of narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) was examined by means of polymerase chain reaction (PC R) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RF LP) analysis of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) of mitochondrial DNA. A total of 194 adult specimens were collected from seven sample sites including, two in the south Caspian Sea and one ea...

Crayfish stocks collapsed in Turkey in mid 1980’s due to crayfish plague epidemics, with up to 25% survival in some cases. The collapsed stocks have then recovered slowly and commercial crayfish fishery was reinitiated gradually within a decade. We examined the prevalence of Aphanomyces astaciDNA in the narrow clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) collected from two Turkish lakes, Lake İznik ...

the genetic variation and population structure of narrow-clawed crayfish (astacus leptodactylus) was examined by means of polymerase chain reaction (pcr) restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp) analysis of the cytochrome oxidase subunit i (coi) of mitochondrial dna. a total of 194 adult specimens were collected from seven sample sites including, two in the south caspian sea and one each...

The use of biofloc technology (BFT) in narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) culture for 45 days was evaluated by production performance and physiological status crayfish. Four different stocking densities were tested BFT (20, 41.66, 62.5, 83.33 individuals m-2). Water quality parameters monitored to sustain desired levels management. growth did not show any significant differences amo...

Pre-larvae hatching fecundity and ovarian of narrow-clawed crayfish populations were estimated in the lakes reservoirs Belarus. Statistically significant differences females from various water bodies noted only for Lake Kichino. For all other bodies, dependence on length did not differ statistically was described by one equation. The greatest loss eggs during spawning period (oviposition), inse...

The genetic variation and population structure of narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) was examined by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) of mitochondrial DNA. A total of 194 adult specimens were collected from seven sample sites including, two in the south Caspian Sea and one each...

Ireland is one of the few locations in Europe where non-indigenous North American crayfish species have not been introduced, and is a refuge for endangered white-clawed crayfish, Austropotamobius pallipes (Lereboullet, 1858). The parthenogenetic crayfish species Marmorkrebs, Procambarus fallax f. virginalis (Hagen, 1870), is sold in the pet trade in Ireland within the recorded range of A. palli...
