Relationship between the prevalence of <i>A.</i><i>astaci</i> (in %; estimated as the proportion of individuals testing positive) in analysed French signal crayfish populations and the average pathogen load (expressed as log-transformed PFU-values) detected in infected individuals (with agent level A2 or higher) from each population.
<p>The equation characterising the model estimated by logistic regression (dashed line) is given in the upper right corner; removal of two outlier populations with highest average pathogen load (indicated by empty circles) did not change the model substantially (dotted line, equation not shown). Note that when a quasibinomial instead of binomial distribution of errors is used (due to overdispersion in data), the increasing trend is non-significant.</p
Map of France with administrative division to regions (dark-bordered areas) and departments within them (light-bordered areas), showing the distribution of the invasive signal crayfish <i>Pacifastacus leniusculus</i> (small empty circles; based on [4], [19], [21], [44]) and approximate location of analysed populations (triangles), and the recent status of the native white-clawed crayfish <i>Austropotamobius pallipes</i> (green shading) and reported cases of its mass mortalities (red crosses and black dots).
<p>Distribution <i>of A. pallipes</i> is based on a 2006 survey <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Collas2" target="_blank">[23]</a> (white: no known population in a department, pale green: 1–5, medium: 6–25, dark: 25–150 populations). Red crosses with years indicate mass mortalities most likely caused by crayfish plague reported since the 1990s (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Machino1" target="_blank">[10]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Collas1" target="_blank">[12]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Neveu1" target="_blank">[13]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Neveu2" target="_blank">[14]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Neveu3" target="_blank">[15]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Papin1" target="_blank">[45]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Neveu5" target="_blank">[46]</a>; T. Duperray and T. Pantarotto, pers. comm.); additional mortalities ascribed to crayfish plague were reported between 2001 and 2005 from departments marked by black dots (according to <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#pone.0070157-Collas2" target="_blank">[23]</a>). Bold crosses mark outbreaks in which <i>A. astaci</i> has been confirmed by molecular detection and genotyped (see <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0070157#s4" target="_blank">Discussion</a>). The prevalence of <i>Aphanomyces astaci</i> in sampled signal crayfish populations is expressed by colour: no reliable detection of the pathogen (white triangles), low prevalence (1–30%, yellow), medium prevalence (31–60%, orange) and high prevalence (61–100%, red triangles); the number of analysed individuals in the respective population is indicated by symbol size (small triangle: <10 individuals, large triangle: 10+ individuals). Regions discussed in the text are abbreviated: Al – Alsace, Au – Auvergne, Ba-No – Basse-Normandie, Ce – Centre, Ch-Ar – Champagne-Ardenne, La-Ro – Languedoc-Rousillon, Li – Limousin, Lo – Lorraine, Po-Ch – Poitou-Charentes, Rh-Al – Rhône-Alpes; Lake Geneva (Lac Léman) is marked by L within the triangle. The distance scale depends on latitude (top: 51.5°N, bottom: 41°N) and reflects the map projection.</p
