Prevalence, molecular identification and genotyping of the crayfish plague pathogen, <i>Aphanomyces astaci</i> in major narrow-clawed crayfish (<i>Pontastacus leptodactylus</i> Eschscholtz, 1823) populations from Türkiye
Crayfish plague poses a significant threat to crayfish populations, necessitating the development of rapid, highly sensitive diagnostic methods. An understanding of the sensitivity of the PCR detection method and of the prevalence and genotyping of <i>A. astaci</i> in Turkish crayfish populations has been gained from this study.
