Genotoxic and Cytotoxic Effects on the Immune Cells of the Freshwater Bivalve Dreissena polymorpha Exposed to the Environmental Neurotoxin BMAA

Toxins, 2018
The environmental neurotoxin β-N-Methylamino-l-alanine (BMAA) has been pointed out to be involved in human neurodegenerative diseases. This molecule is known to be bioaccumulated by bivalves.

Stress related epigenetic changes may explain opportunistic success in biological invasions in Antipode mussels [PDF]

, 2018
Different environmental factors could induce epigenetic changes, which are likely involved in the biological invasion process. Some of these factors are driven by humans as, for example, the pollution and deliberate or accidental introductions and others

Ecological causes and consequences of the formation of taxa with reduced adaptive potential as exemplified by freshwater pearl mussels (Margaritifera)

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2016
Freshwater pearl mussels live in rapid, cold rivers and streams, occupying the ecological niche that few of other bivalves fit. Therefore, these mussels are abundant in undisturbed habitats, and there is practically no struggle for existence in their ...

Climate change and temperature dependent biogeography: oxygen limitation of thermal tolerance in animals [PDF]

, 2001
Recent years have shown a rise in mean global temperatures and a shift in the geographical distribution of ectothermic animals. For a cause and effect analysis the present paper discusses those physiological processes limiting thermal tolerance.

Freshwater mussel (Bivalvia, Palaeoheterodonta) larvae in natural history collections: an underutilised resource [PDF]

Natural History Collections and Museomics
Natural history collections which store the soft bodies of freshwater mussels can provide information for research and the public in a comparatively simple way that has so far been insufficiently considered. This involves the examination of larval forms,
