Biochemical responses of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei under dietary glyphosate exposure
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2018 The aim of this study was to analyze the biochemical alterations in the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei under dietary glyphosate exposure. Mussels were fed during 4 weeks with the green algae Scenedesmus vacuolatus previously exposed to a commercial formulation of glyphosate (6 mg L-1 active principle) with the addition of alkyl aryl polyglycol ether

Physiological and Metabolic Responses of Marine Mussels Exposed to Toxic Cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa and Chrysosporum ovalisporum [PDF]
, 2020 Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a major contaminant in inland aquatic ecosystems. Furthermore, toxic blooms are carried downstream by rivers and waterways to estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Concerning marine and estuarine animal species, very little is

More than two decades after the introduction of Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) in La Plata Basin
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2018 The golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, is an Asian freshwater bivalve introduced in South America in the beginning of the 1990’s, probably through ballast water releases in La Plata River estuary.

Ecography, EarlyView.Invasive freshwater bivalves harm native species, ecosystems and biodiversity, and incur economic costs. The enemy release hypothesis posits that invasive species are released from enemies during the invasion process, giving them a competitive advantage in the new environment.

Toxicity of three comercial tannins to the nuisance invasive species Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857): implications for control [PDF]
, 2011 Adding biocides to water is one strategy to control macrofouling organisms. A natural biocide that helps to prevent/control macrofouling of Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) on human installations is one way to minimize environmental impacts of ...

Impact of the invasive mussel Limnoperna fortunei on glyphosate concentration in water
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2012 The use of glyphosate has increased dramatically during the past years around the world. Microbial communities are altered when glyphosate reaches water bodies. The freshwater golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei is an invasive species that has rapidly dispersed since it was introduced in Argentina two decades ago. Mussels alter aquatic conditions through
