Impact of the invasive golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei) on phytoplankton and nutrient cycling
In order to evaluate the effects of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei on phytoplankton density and composition and nutrient recycling we conducted a 24 h filtration experiment in Rio Tercero Reservoir (Argentina) using four 400 L mesocosms, two of them stocked with 1700-1800 adult mussels each, and two controls (without mussels).

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

A schematic outline of the study showing where seaweeds were harvested, how they were analyzed and then evaluated for micronutrients. ABSTRACT Seaweeds (macroalgae) are increasingly recognized as potential nutrient‐dense components of human diets and promising contributors to sustainable food systems.

Effects of conspecifics on settling juveniles of the invasive golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei
We conducted a field experiment to assess the influence of conspecific adults on recruitment success of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei. Tiles, 225 cm2 surface area, were used as artificial substrates in four treatments: control (blank tiles), low (800 mussels m−2), medium (4,000 mussels m−2) and high (12,000 mussels m−2) density treatments ...
