TitleDiversity of mitochondrial DNA of the endangered white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius italicus) in the Po River catchment
Abstract1. The strong contraction of the European populations of white-clawed crayfish has stimulated research of its population genetics. As part of a conservation project to introduce and improve Italian populations of Austropotamobius italicus, the genetic diversity of 16 populations from 10 tributaries of the Po River drainage was evaluated by sequencing a 494 bp length of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI mtDNA).

The strong contraction of the European populations of white clawed crayfish has stimulated research of its population genetics. As part of a conservation project to introduce and improve Italian populations of Austropotamobius italicus, the genetic diversity of 16 populations from 10 tributaries of the Po River drainage was evaluated by sequencing a 494 bp length of cytochrome oxidase subunit I COI mtDNA . 2. The evolutionary tree topologies and the parsimony network of 26 haplotypes separated into two clusters, on the basis of high average genetic distance 6.51 / 0.42% . This finding indicated the presence of distinct evolutionary lineages, other than different allopatric sources. 50 Articolo in rivista Blackwell Scientific Publications. 0046 5070 Freshwater biology Print Freshwater biology Print Freshw. biol.
