The Complete Mitogenome of the Estuarine Clam Potamocorbula amurensis (Corbulidae, Myida) and Its Implications for Phylogeny and Adaptation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study reports the first complete mitogenome of the estuarine clam Potamocorbula amurensis, revealing its phylogenetic position as a sister group to the Myidae–Dreissenidae clade. Molecular dating indicates a Middle Jurassic divergence, and positive selection was detected in the nad5 gene, suggesting mitochondrial adaptations to osmotic stress in ...

Detection of Limnoperna fortunei DNA From Plankton Samples: A New Protocol

European Journal of Biology and Biotechnology, 2023
Limnoperna fortunei (golden mussel) is an invasive mollusk, native to Southeast Asia. The detection of L. fortunei, during early stages of the invasion, is an interesting strategy for its control and eradication. For these aims, traditional methods are used based on identifying the species in samples of zooplankton or benthos community.

The most problematic freshwater invasive species in South America, Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857), and its status after 30 years of invasion [PDF]

, 2022
Limnoperna fortunei, a problematic freshwater invasive mussel in South America, was first detected in 1991 at Bagliardi Beach, Río de la Plata (Argentina). Since then, there has been a high increase in population density, reaching up to 150,000 ind. m−2.

Characterization of the digestive microbiome of invasive Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) collected in different seasons in the upper Uruguay River, Santa Catarina, Brazil

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences
We aimed to identify the digestive microbiota of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei, and characterize its structure in different seasons. Limnoperna fortunei specimens were sampled in winter (September 2019) and summer (March 2020) in five reservoirs

FISH PREDATORS OF THE GOLDEN MUSSEL Limnoperna fortunei IN DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS IN A SOUTH AMERICAN SUBTROPICAL RIVER

Boletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2019
This study aimed to evaluate whether the golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, identified in the upper Uruguay River for the first time in 2012, has been incorporated into the diet of the ichthyofauna present in different environments of a Neotropical ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
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

Cabomba caroliniana and Schoenoplectus californicus as Antifouling Candidates: Anti‐Attachment and Toxicological Effects in Aurelia coerulea (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa)

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 356-372, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biofouling on artificial surfaces in aquatic ecosystems leads to significant economic losses. Current antifouling paints, while effective, often harm the aquatic environment. This study explores ecologically safe antifouling alternatives derived from plants, focusing on the aquatic macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana (CC) and Schoenoplectus ...

Refining Spat‐Collection Practices to Optimise Single‐Seed Spat Production for New Zealand's Greenshell (Perna canaliculus) Mussel Industry

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mussel aquaculture depends on a consistent spat supply, often sourced from spat‐collection ropes suspended in coastal waters. However, settlement on these ropes can be highly variable due to environmental factors. Therefore, improving spat supply from this source relies on optimising aspects of the process, particularly the timing of ...

Environmental Effects on the Selective Feeding and Fatty Acid Retention of Freshwater Pearl Mussel

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Land‐use activities within catchments alter surface runoff dynamics, potentially influencing food quality and quantity available to consumers. Essential fatty acids are crucial biomolecules for consumers, which they usually need to uptake from their diet.
