Differential effects of adult mussels on the retention and fine-scale distribution of juvenile seed mussels and biofouling organisms in long-line aquaculture

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2017
The majority of juvenile seed mussels are lost in aquaculture production. Understanding the causes of the losses of seed mussels is critical to reducing uncertainties in mussel aquaculture production.

Global host molecular perturbations upon in situ loss of bacterial endosymbionts in the deep-sea mussel Bathymodiolus azoricus assessed using proteomics and transcriptomics

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Colonization of deep-sea hydrothermal vents by most invertebrates was made efficient through their adaptation to a symbiotic lifestyle with chemosynthetic bacteria, the primary producers in these ecosystems.

MALDI-TOF MS as a tool for the identification of Vibrio alginolyticus from Perna perna mussels (Linnaeus, 1758)

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: Vibrio species are ubiquitous in aquatic environments, including coastal and marine habitats. Vibrio alginolyticus is an opportunistic pathogen for fish, crustaceans and mussels and their identification by biochemical tests may be impaired due their ...

Zebra or quagga mussel dominance depends on trade-offs between growth and defense-Field support from Onondaga Lake, NY.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Two invasive mussels (zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha and quagga mussel D. rostriformis bugensis) have restructured the benthic habitat of many water bodies in both Europe and North America.

Dilación del desove de Modiolus capax (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)

Revista de Biología Tropical, 1998
La capacidad de Modiolus capax de dilatar el desove y retener gametos maduros por períodos largos se estudió en organismos sexualmente maduros sometidos a condiciones de baja temperatura y raciones alimenticias superiores a las de mantenimiento.

A multi-criteria approach to identify priority regions for freshwater biodiversity conservation

FACETS
Area-based conservation requires identifying priority areas, but guidance on which ecological criteria to use and how these criteria influence perceived conservation priorities is limited.

Impact of Synthetic Microfibers on Cellular and Biochemical Biomarkers in Mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

Microplastics
Synthetic or plastic microfibers (MFs) are an emerging form of microplastic pollution in marine ecosystems, derived from textile degradation and weathering of fishing and aquaculture gear.

A mussel watch in the Ria Formosa lagoon

Ciencias Marinas, 2005
The present work analyzes the concentrations of various metals (Ag, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) in the edible part of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis from the Ria Formosa lagoon (Portugal). Mussels of a similar size (5–7 cm) were collected.

Oxidative DNA damage in digestive gland of mussel Perna perna as indicator of environmental stress [PDF]

Biotemas, 2004
In this work, the levels of DNA damage (8-oxo-7,8-dihidro-2’-desoxiguanosina, 8-oxodGuo) were evaluated in digestive glands of mussels exposed to different metals for 24 hours, as well as in coastal and farmed mussels.
