Evolution of diverse host infection mechanisms delineates an adaptive radiation of lampsiline freshwater mussels centered on their larval ecology [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 North American watersheds contain a high diversity of freshwater mussels (Unionoida). During the long-lived, benthic phase of their life cycle, up to 40 species can co-occur in a single riffle and there is typically little evidence for major differences ...

Linking Phylogeny and Morphology to Resource Assimilation Within Aquatic Assemblages. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe examined how phylogeny and morphology affected resource assimilation patterns within aquatic assemblages, specifically freshwater mussels (Family: Uniondae). We found that (1) species identity and site influenced gill morphology and stable isotope signatures but that the trophic niche area of a species was only affected by species identity; (2) the ...

Quantifying Effects and Ingestion of Several Pristine Microplastics in Two Early Life Stages of Freshwater Mussels. [PDF]
Environ Toxicol ChemAbstract Microplastics have been found in freshwater systems, and in turn have been detected in freshwater bivalves. However, there is limited research that defines the toxicity of microplastics to native freshwater bivalves that have long been imperiled in North America.
