Özet
Crayfish plague is considered the most important crayfish disease globally. It is caused by the fungus-like agent, . This study aimed to identify and determine the prevalence of using PCR in narrow-clawed crayfish () populations from across Türkiye. A PCR was carried out with primers specific to the internal transcribed spacer region of the pathogen on both telson and abdominal cuticle tissues from crayfish individuals from 41 different locations. 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 in Turkish crayfish populations has been gained from this study.
