Astacus astacus was experimentally infected with IPNV and were able to transmit the virus back to naïve rainbow trout fry and eggs. IPNV could be detected in haemocytes of the antennal gland, gills and hepatopancreas of exposed crayfish although no pathological changes were noted in infected crayfish. The virus persisted in crayfish for up to a year after exposure, suggesting replication is possible and raising concerns over the role of crayfish in transmission of the virus to fish.
