A study of genetic variation in the yabby (Cherax destructor) was undertaken using a number of different molecular techniques. The results have significantly improved our understanding of the genetic structure, evolution and taxonomy of this important freshwater species. The findings also contribute to the sustainable exploitation of yabbies for aquaculture.
